Getting used to shelter life isn’t easy, especially if you’re a small pup coming from the street and you’ve never felt the kind touch of a human!
When Peaches and Layla, together with their 7-year-old mom, Lady, first entered their shelter home, they were terrified of the new environment. The puppies were highly insecure when their mom wasn’t around, as they hadn’t been used to being apart from her.
The heartbreaking picture of Layla and Peaches comforting each other with a hug after one routine vet checkup went viral in no time, melting the hearts of thousands of people all over the world!
Lady, Layla, And Peaches Saved From A Filthy Pen
Last year, the Animal Charity of Ohio, from Youngstown, Ohio, was contacted by the Youngstown Police Department about canines in an abandoned, filthy pen.
Jane MacMurchy, the director of this organization, arrived at the address, finding a mom dog and her two puppies living in inhumane conditions, all covered in dirt.
The dogs were extremely scared, clinging to each other and refusing to socialize at first.
