They’re so happy now and even met Santa ❤️
Jennifer McKee is an avid dog rescuer in the San Antonio area and always keeps an eye out for pups who need help. When she saw a Facebook post about a mom dog and two puppies who were abandoned in a park, she immediately drove over to help them.
When McKee arrived at the park, she found the little family huddled up on a rain-soaked blanket together. She approached them slowly, as she was worried about scaring them — but as it turned out, they were more than ready to be rescued.
“They were sleeping, so I was quiet and slow,” McKee told The Dodo. “I didn’t speak, just offered the mama some turkey. She took it and was starving, licking the bowl like crazy.”
McKee was able to easily load the mom and two puppies into her car and get them situated. She had no idea how long they’d been out there, but it was clear they hadn’t been loved or cared for in a very long time.
“The mama was skin and bones, [her] skin and fur a mess,” McKee said. “The puppies looked good considering how they were found.”
McKee got the little family checked out by a vet and is now fostering them until they’re able to be adopted. They may never have known love before, but their foster family is making sure that all three will never know anything but joy ever again.
With some help from people on TikTok, the mom dog is now named Nova, and her puppies are Peaches and Tank. The little family has since been shopping, gotten pup cups and even met Santa. They’re being spoiled rotten, which is exactly what they’ve always deserved.
“Mama sat so nice with Santa and we have beautiful photos to show their future forever families,” McKee wrote on TikTok.
McKee can’t wait to find all three their forever homes soon, and will make sure they go to homes that will love and spoil them just as much as she has.
