Operation India Annie and her pups

Heather is the niece of Karen Good and a longtime supporter of Red Lake Rosie's Rescue. She has made two trips to India this summer training workers for her job.

Being an animal lover, she goes out and feeds the street dogs, and a yellow dog, she now calls India Annie, led Heather to her litter of eight pups living in the trash of a concrete sewer pipe.

She started by feeding them and then tried to get them transferred to the safety of a rescue. Heather has to leave India TOMORROW (Sept. 27), so she only has 2 days left to take care of arrangements.

There is a vet that will handle the transfer provided the mama passes a temperament test and is deemed safe to transport. Then it is a matter of money.

I am sitting her on pins and needles hoping for the thumbs-up tomorrow. Needless to say, Heather is very excited, as she has been so worried about their outcome should they have to remain on the street.  She has become very attached to the family.

UPDATE FROM HEATHER:

Operation India Annie is scheduled to begin tomorrow!

A local vet saw Annie and the puppies this morning. He gave Annie her vaccines, a leash and a collar. He said she is skinny but relatively healthy and has a wonderful temperament, especially for a street dog. He said the puppies were VERY healthy and estimates their age at about 5 weeks. He approved all for the drive to Delhi.

A volunteer is picking them all up tomorrow for the 10-hour drive. I can't believe this is happening! I will keep you posted!  Heather
