12 Bottle Babies!

On Father's Day Red Lake Rosie's Rescue got a call about a mama and her litter of 12 puppies. The owner had lost his job and had no money for dog food and was unable to care for the 12 puppies. He wanted them removed from his place. He did not however want to part with the mama dog.

Karen delivered food to the man and took the twelve little pups who were about 3-4 weeks old. The mother had no milk and they were ravenously hungry. So off to the RLRR shelter they went.

RLRR will spay the mama dog with the owner's blessing and also agreed to help him with food until he gets some income again.

Once at RLRR shelter they had lots of puppy milk which at first we tried to have them drink from a bowl. That did not work well so Benay and Karen bottled these babies for 2 days and thankfully got them placed in great foster care with 6 going to TLC and 6 going to St. Francis of Assissi on June 21st.

We are so thankful to have these great rescues to take our "high maintenence" neonatal pups and kittens!

Karen and Benay
