The 2-year-old lurcher was tightly chained to a metal fence post by her collar in a remote field. The dog had been abandoned with six of her puppies, which were still too small to open their eyes. They were left without food and drink, and the mother was attempting to milk her baby while being bound by the chain straining at her collar.
Nobody knew how long the seven-member family had been stuck there. Rescuers believe the mother and her pups were abandoned soon after the mother gave birth, according to the Daily Mail.
The seven canines were sent to the ISPCA’s national animal facility in County Longford for immediate medical care. Fortunately, neither mom nor her infants were really harmed, other from having to endure their period of hunger and the freezing cold
The puppies’ names are Billy Ray, Dixie, Dolly, Dotty, June, and Patsy, and they will all stay with the ISPCA until they are old enough to be adopted.
The ISPCA, like other animal welfare organizations throughout the world, continues to encourage pet owners to spay and neuter their pets in order to help reduce the population of unwanted animals.
