Dumped In Bushes, The Puppies Were Guarded By Their Mama
The woman’s heart raced as she approached the flowerbed and noticed puppies nestled among the flowers. It was clear they hadn’t gotten there by themselves; someone had abandoned them. Shocked and worried, she saw that the puppies were kept warm and safe by their mother, who was fiercely protecting them.
Fortunately, the puppies appeared healthy, thanks to their dedicated mama’s care. However, every time the woman tried to get closer, the mother dog growled and barked, defending her babies with all her might. Realizing she couldn’t rescue them alone, she reached out for help.
She called Suzette Hall from Logan’s Legacy in Irvine, California. Suzette was known for her compassion and expertise in rescuing animals in need. When she heard about the situation, she immediately headed to the site, prepared for a challenging rescue.
As Suzette arrived, she was struck by the sight of the tiny family. The mother was still aggressively protecting her pups, making it clear that she wouldn’t let anyone harm them. Suzette knew she had to tread carefully to save them all.
It Was A Bit Of A Complicated Rescue
Upon arrival, Suzette was heartbroken by the sight of the abandoned family. She couldn’t grasp why anyone would leave such innocent creatures to fend for themselves. The situation was further complicated by the ferocious wind, which made the little family shiver.
“I couldn’t believe my eyes when I walked up and saw them. Mama didn’t want me to go near them,” Suzette recalled. She knew that the mother dog was acting out of fear and protection, not aggression, and that patience was key.
She decided to approach the rescue methodically. One by one, Suzette managed to place each puppy into a crate, ensuring their safety. But the mother was still too wary to be caught easily, and Suzette had to think of another way to gain her trust.
Suzette set up a humane trap with food, placing the puppies’ crate nearby. The plan was simple but required patience. Eventually, the mother dog, drawn by the scent of food and the proximity to her pups, entered the trap.
Finally In Good Hands
With the mother finally captured, Suzette carefully moved her to the car. It took only moments for the mother to realize she was now reunited with her puppies. Her demeanor changed instantly; she was no longer the fierce protector, but a relieved and exhausted mother.
“After I got her out of the trap, she was putty in my hands, exhausted. Finally, she didn’t have to be brave. She could just rest because she knew her little family was safe,” Suzette shared on her social media.
It was a heartwarming reunion. The mother dog, now calm, began to sniff and nuzzle her puppies, showering them with affection. It was a sight that brought tears to Suzette’s eyes.
Suzette took the family to Camino Pet Hospital in Irvine for a thorough checkup. The staff there fell in love with them instantly, providing the care and attention they desperately needed. The puppies and their mother were finally in a safe environment where they could thrive.
Waiting To Be Adopted
The mother dog, later named Bambi, along with her five puppies, were soon placed in a foster home. The puppies are growing stronger every day, eagerly awaiting the moment when they will find their forever homes.
Bambi has transformed remarkably. She’s no longer the fearful, protective mother but a sweet and affectionate dog. The love and care from her foster family have brought out her true personality.
As the puppies continue to flourish, there’s hope that each will find a loving home. The day when that special someone comes to adopt them will be a joyous occasion for everyone involved.
Bambi, too, deserves a family that will cherish her for the rest of her life. “When the time is right, I really hope she gets what she deserved all this time – a loving family and owners who’ll know how to appreciate her for who she is,” Suzette expressed. Until then, she remains in the loving care of her foster family.

Did the woman who found them get to adopt any of the puppies? That would be such a sweet ending.
