When Rescue From The Hart received an urgent call about a stray dog, they were in for more than just a simple rescue mission. Little did they know that they would rescue quite a few lives from the streets of Los Angeles.

After finding the scared dog and trying to get a leash on it, the brave rescuers soon realized that this stray was a female–and quite a pregnant pup, too.

I’m happy that rescuers like these save as many poor animals as they can from the streets. Imagine if those puppies were born under an overpass somewhere. I would have doubted their chances of survival in that instance. In any case, they will now hopefully go on to live long, happy lives with their adoptive families.
