Even though their rescue was already at capacity, they knew they couldn\u2019t turn their backs on the sweet little family. They put out a call for help to the community in order to get some support and began to get the pups settled in.<\/p>\n<figure data-element-index=\"4\" data-element-type=\"ParagraphImage\"><picture data-testid=\"picture-tag\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/assets3.thrillist.com\/v1\/image\/3184377\/792x1056\/scale;webp=auto;jpeg_quality=60.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets3.thrillist.com\/v1\/image\/3184377\/792x1056\/scale;webp=auto;jpeg_quality=60.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/assets3.thrillist.com\/v1\/image\/3184377\/1584x2112\/scale;webp=auto;jpeg_quality=60.jpg 2000w\" alt=\"Rescue Finds A Box Of Puppies Abandoned On Their Property \u2014 And Then They Realize Why\" width=\"792\" height=\"1056\" \/><\/picture><figcaption>Saving Hope Rescue<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div data-element-index=\"5\" data-element-type=\"ParagraphBodyText\">\n<p data-element-index=\"0\">As everyone at the rescue started getting to know the abandoned puppies, they realized that the pups had been hiding something: Apparently, they were all visually and hearing impaired to some degree.<\/p>\n<p data-element-index=\"1\">\u201cAt first, they were all deemed blind and deaf,\u201d Lauren Anton of Saving Hope Rescue told The Dodo. \u201cEventually, as time went by and they developed some more, we discovered that some puppies are more impaired than others.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<figure data-element-index=\"6\" data-element-type=\"ParagraphImage\"><picture data-testid=\"picture-tag\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/assets3.thrillist.com\/v1\/image\/3184379\/792x1056\/scale;webp=auto;jpeg_quality=60.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets3.thrillist.com\/v1\/image\/3184379\/792x1056\/scale;webp=auto;jpeg_quality=60.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/assets3.thrillist.com\/v1\/image\/3184379\/1584x2112\/scale;webp=auto;jpeg_quality=60.jpg 2000w\" alt=\"Rescue Finds A Box Of Puppies Abandoned On Their Property \u2014 And Then They Realize Why\" width=\"792\" height=\"1056\" \/><\/picture><figcaption>Saving Hope Rescue<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div data-element-index=\"7\" data-element-type=\"ParagraphBodyText\">\n<p data-element-index=\"0\">It\u2019s possible that this was the reason the puppies were abandoned in the first place, but it\u2019s hard to know for sure.

Even if they might need a little extra help, they were still members of the Saving Hope family.<\/p>\n<p data-element-index=\"1\">As the puppies grew, their unique personalities began to shine through, and their rescuers were also able to start getting an accurate picture of their different abilities.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<figure data-element-index=\"8\" data-element-type=\"ParagraphImage\"><picture data-testid=\"picture-tag\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/assets3.thrillist.com\/v1\/image\/3184384\/792x1056\/scale;webp=auto;jpeg_quality=60.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets3.thrillist.com\/v1\/image\/3184384\/792x1056\/scale;webp=auto;jpeg_quality=60.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/assets3.thrillist.com\/v1\/image\/3184384\/1584x2112\/scale;webp=auto;jpeg_quality=60.jpg 2000w\" alt=\"Rescue Finds A Box Of Puppies Abandoned On Their Property \u2014 And Then They Realize Why\" width=\"792\" height=\"1056\" \/><\/picture><figcaption>Saving Hope Rescue<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div data-element-index=\"9\" data-element-type=\"ParagraphBodyText\">\n<p data-element-index=\"0\">\u201cMate is a good example of the slightly impaired puppies,\u201d Anton said. \u201cWe don\u2019t know how much she can see and hear, for sure, but we do know that she can hear being called, knows when we shake the food bag, and will approach people when called to come over \u2026 Koala, on the other hand, is much more impaired \u2026 We aren\u2019t sure how much he can see.
