Separated from their mother and trapped in an inescapable, stinking drainage ditch just inches from rushing sewage water, the only thing these puppies could do was huddle together on a small dry spot and cry out for help. A compassionate child heard them wailing and, recognizing the danger they were in, immediately called Animal Rahat for help.

Two puppies are stranded in a drainage ditch dangerously close to rushing sewage water.

Animal Rahat’s team rushed to the scene and waded into the contaminated water. The young boy who had reported the stranded pups insisted on joining in to help with the rescue.

Together, they scooped up the drenched and distressed puppies and moved them to a safe, dry place to clean them and check for injuries. Animal Rahat’s team thanked the boy for his kind and quick actions and whisked the puppies back to the office.

After some welcome meals and a good night’s rest, the puppies were lively and playful, clearly enjoying the treats and affection that they received from Animal Rahat’s staff.

A couple of days later, the pups were off to join their new family, whose elderly dog recently passed away and who are thrilled to welcome these wonderful new additions into their home. Animal Rahat’s team will sterilize and vaccinate the puppies as soon as they’re a little older.
