🍁 MEDICAL STORY MONDAY: MISS MAPLE 🍁
Less than 6 weeks ago, this girl was on the verge of both labor & death after being dumped and left to die. 🥺💔 where she was at in TX, nobody had room to help her…..She was just withering away.
She got VERY lucky when one of our partners there learned about her and was willing to take her in. We agreed to take her as a PAC dog, but obviously she couldn’t travel in her condition!
Only 4 days later - YES 4 DAYS after these photos, she shocked us all by having 6 gorgeous and healthy babies. 😍 Her body had managed to give ALL the scraps of nutrients she got to the babies growing in her tiny belly. We are not sure where she was hiding them. We would have loved for her to wait a little bit longer and get some more food into her first, but at least she had a few days of calories and vitamins in first! And thankfully it worked out 💜
We are all so amazed by this and happy that she was able to be saved when she was thanks to a wonderful partnership between our rescue and these amazing humans in TX. Check out her GLOW UP in these photos below though❗️ Even while feeding 6 hungry monsters, with the proper food, shelter & love, Maple is looking incredible now😍 no more ribs showing, her coat is darker and shinier, and she has so much more energy!
Turns out she’s just a puppy herself!! 💜 all she wants to do is play and snuggle! ☺️ and now that her pups are 5 weeks old, she is DONE nursing them😍
Unfortunately, she is heartworm positive so she will be starting treatment after she dries up and gets spayed. HOWEVER, this doesn’t mean she doesn’t deserve to start a great new life with a new family that loves her! SOO we are starting to search for a PERFECT family for this girl now. She will be ready to go to her home the weekend of Nov.14th. 💕 it will be a foster-to-adopt situation while she finishes her medical care provided by the rescue.
SHE LOVES other dogs, plays hard, cat testing pending, loves kids and is a toy hoarder! Honestly, this girl is the class clown with her goofy smile and tippy-tap walk when she’s excited! 🤡 A catahoula, lab, shepherd, beagle mix she is the perfect sized medium girl (a lot smaller than she looks) - only about 35 lbs! 😊

PS: yes the pups will be looking for fosters and adopters soon too, but right now this is all about Momma Maple 😉
