Your Love is a Lifeline for Animals in Need

A brutal snowstorm was rolling in. Six skinny, wee pups and their devoted mama huddled together for warmth. Their guardian, overwhelmed and with nowhere else to turn, reached out for help and thanks to love like yours, these young sweeties are now safe and warm after a long journey.

Important rescues like these are only made possible by the kindness and generosity of animal-lovers just like you. Please keep that in mind as you look into the precious eyes of these puppies and consider where they might be without this vital safety net.

With the snowstorm closing in, a team from the closest BC SPCA Animal Centre immediately set out on a 10+ hour round trip, braving treacherous conditions to bring this little family into care.

Upon arrival, it became clear how desperate the situation was. You can count the puppies’ bones beneath their patchy, crusted coats. Three of the most concerning wee ones are less than half the size of their littermates. These puppies needed to see a vet, fast.

At the vet, their worst fears were confirmed. All six puppies and their mother are severely underweight and malnourished, too weak to play or even stand for long. Their fragile bodies are suffering from multiple medical conditions including internal parasites, lice, coccidia, eye and ear infections, and painful skin issues.
