Actress Alicia Silverstone has intervened to save a pregnant dog and her 14 puppies from euthanasia. The dog, a 3-year-old terrier mix named Noel, was taken to a shelter in San Bernardino, California, where she faced an imminent euthanasia appointment due to overcrowding.
Silverstone learned of Noel's situation and contacted the Helen Woodward Animal Center. Staff traveled approximately 100 miles to rescue Noel, who surprisingly gave birth to her puppies shortly after their arrival. While two puppies did not survive, the remaining 12 were named after the 12 Days of Christmas.
In late January, Silverstone and her son Bear visited the animal center. They have since taken four of the puppies to foster at Silverstone's Los Angeles home. All the puppies and their mother, Noel, are expected to be available for adoption in mid-February, with Silverstone advocating for animal rescue adoption.
