Surprise Rescue: Stray Dog Reveals She's Pregnant with Six Pups
20 Feb
Summary
- A woman found a stray husky on a mountain trail, later discovering she was pregnant.
- The rescued dog, named Chilaquiles, was found to be carrying six puppies.
- Over 100 people responded to adoption inquiries for the puppies.
A chance encounter on a mountain trail led to an unexpected rescue when a woman discovered a lone husky. Initially assuming the dog had an owner, she learned the husky was a stray after asking other trail users. Deciding to take the dog, named Chilaquiles, home if she followed, the woman was surprised when the husky readily accompanied her.
During a follow-up veterinary appointment two weeks after the rescue, it was revealed that Chilaquiles was pregnant. An X-ray confirmed she was expecting six puppies, due to arrive soon. Faced with this news, the rescuer felt a deep connection to Chilaquiles and decided against an abortion, seeking alternative solutions.
Seeking potential homes for the future puppies, she posted on local social media pages, receiving over 100 responses. Many of those interested completed an adoption form, providing assurance that the puppies would have stable futures. The rescuer has since prepared a whelping space and enlisted veterinary support, with the puppies expected to remain with their mother for a critical eight to twelve weeks for their development.
