A furry friend set out on a daily three-kilometer trek to search for food for her ten little ones. However, the good news is that she’s now been rescued and her puppies will be finding their forever homes soon.
Residents of Fowler, Fresno in California were concerned about a mother dog who was seen wandering around their local area. The dog had recently given birth and was walking for two miles every day to find food for her puppies. Upon hearing about the situation, Krystle Woodward, the founder of Pinky Paws ResQ animal rescue group, decided to take action. Although she had heard about the dog two months prior to this, no one had been able to capture her until last Thursday when Krystle and her team finally rescued Betty Boop and her 10 adorable puppies.
Krystle shared on the organization’s Facebook page that she had a pleasant surprise during her break at work. She stumbled upon Betty Boop in a state of distress and quickly sprang into action to help. Although Betty Boop tried to run away from her, Krystle’s husband came to the rescue and managed to save her while Krystle was on her lunch break last Thursday.
A mother dog traveled 3 kilometers every day to find food for her puppies. According to eyewitnesses, she had been doing this for three to four weeks, covering miles around the outskirts of town just to feed her young. Worried about the safety of the puppies, their caretaker took the mother dog to the vet, despite her exhaustion after a long day at work. Upon discovering that the dog was still breastfeeding, the caretaker cried all night, imagining the little ones starving without their mother’s milk. Betty Boop, as the dog is affectionately called, made an attempt to escape by running outside and climbing the fence on Friday. It was clear that she was desperate to reunite with her puppies. The search for Betty Boop’s offspring has now begun.
YourCentralValley reported that a group of ten puppies were found in the basement of an abandoned property. Krystle’s friend’s son asked an elementary school student, Kenneth Stoen, to assist with the rescue. The puppies were in good health and were given unique names such as Amber, Citrine, Copper, Jade, Jasper, Onyx, Opal, Pearl, Rubyloo, and Sage. Kenneth was touched by the trust shown by the mother dog who allowed him to discover her puppies, and he now holds a special place in his heart for them.
