Mother dog defends her pups by excavating a burrow in the snow and around them with her body… Read the full story here!

Minnesota’s northwest was pounded by a snowstorm.

A dog who had recently given birth and her six puppies were captured in the forest by bad weather.

The young mother was in a terrible situation: she needed food and a warm place to stay, but she didn’t want to abandon her children.

The dog dug a tiny hole in the snow to keep himself warm.

Her milk was gone due to hunger and cold, and the family was bound to die.

Fortunately, aid arrived in time, and the dog was noticed. They escorted the family to the Rosie refuge in Red Lake.

The institution’s personnel were astounded by what they saw.

Snowbelle – the young mother’s name – had been lying with the puppies in the snow for at least three weeks, based on their age.

She was slowly starving to death, but she couldn’t bear the thought of abandoning her children.

The shelter is baffled as to how the dog and puppies managed to stay alive in such dire circumstances.

When they were brought in, the young mother was barely able to stand.

She was frail and fearful of people, yet she lacked aggression.

Snowbelle’s milk returned after a few days of being warm and full, and she began to feel better.

In just six weeks, the shelter staff found four puppies’ new homes.

The two who stayed with their mother continued to live in Red Lake Rosie, but only for a short time until a line of people waiting to take the children home formed.

Snowbelle has improved: she has gained a few pounds and has entirely recovered.

Despite the fact that mature animals are more difficult to adopt than puppies, the shelter workers assumed she would find a loving and caring home with someone who would value her bravery and commitment.
