A sad and all too familiar sight. Note the chain round Mama's neck.
A mama Mastin was left to fend for herself on the street, even though she was nursing tiny puppies.
This is a daily occurance here; big dogs are neglected time and time again and
put out on the streets, where their sad battle for survival begins.
After a time they are also guaranteed to get pregnant and there the misery starts: the pups are born, are fragile because they get inadequate nutrition because their mummy itself is very weak!
That is what happened to our Natalie, who luckily ended up
with us! She is a sweet, gentle bear, one of thousands, good with children and
adults and a great mother to her small ones.
She was very weak so it was amazing to see how well these
puppies did. All three have survived and they are doing well.
Natalie is also recovering quickly and her eyes look proudly
down at her three little bears. Her life has a new meaning, and the three
little ones will never end up in a situation like their mummy. We will make sure
of that.
The street is no place for them
Vigilant
