\u201cThese guys are definitely bonded.\u201d<\/h2>\n
\n

\n

The other day, a resident in Southern California called Logan\u2019s Legacy dog rescue to report a trio of pups abandoned in their neighborhood. Suzette Hall, the founder of Logan\u2019s Legacy, couldn\u2019t get there until the end of the day, but she had friends nearby who were willing to help.<\/p>\n

When Hall\u2019s team arrived, they found dogs in the same position the caller described: huddled closely together on the sidewalk. The triplets sat with their backs glued to each other, staring straight ahead as if to guard one another. Each loyal sibling refused to leave their post.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey just sat on the corner and waited,\u201d Hall told The Dodo. \u201cThey didn\u2019t move because they were waiting for their family to come back.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

After speaking to neighbors, Hall\u2019s rescue team learned that the dogs\u2019 family let them out of their car near Magic Johnson Park in Los Angeles, then drove away. Neighbors watched as the pups bolted into the park for safety.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey just ran inside the park and huddled together,\u201d Hall said. \u201cSo many cars almost hit them.\u201d<\/p>\n

The dogs spent days waiting for their family to come back for them, but no one returned. They were almost out of hope when Hall\u2019s team arrived.<\/p>\n

At first, the rescuers found the pups sitting stoically on the sidewalk. But with temperatures rising that morning, the dogs ran off for shelter. As they fled the sun, they made sure to stick together.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was hot that day, and there was a car parked in one of the spots,\u201d Hall said. \u201cThey went under the car, but they stayed all curled up together.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Usually, Hall and her team use humane dog traps to rescue strays. To their surprise, this little family didn\u2019t need a cage at all.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy rescuers put some food in their hands and coaxed them over,\u201d Hall said. \u201cThey went right to them.\u201d<\/p>\n

Two of the pups were hesitant at first, but the only girl in the group trusted her rescuers immediately. The team picked her up, put her in their van and watched as her two brothers hopped in eagerly behind her.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey didn\u2019t want to be without their sister,\u201d Hall said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Once the rescuers had the pups in their van, they realized just how neglected they were.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey were covered in ticks,\u201d Hall said. \u201cThey were so<\/em> matted, and they each had about 40 ticks on them or more.\u201d<\/p>\n

As uncomfortable as they were, the three dogs were relieved to be reunited. One of the rescuers drove the little family to her house, and they stayed attached at the hip the whole way there.<\/p>\n

Once home, the woman shaved down each of the pups to free them from the ticks and mats. The dogs felt better almost instantly, but nothing was more comforting to them than snuggling back up with their siblings that evening.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey stayed together the whole night,\u201d Hall said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

It\u2019s not unusual for stray dogs to bond with each other for survival, but Hall could tell that these pups were different.<\/p>\n

\u201cA lot of times, dogs will be bonded on the street, but then after the rescue, they don\u2019t like each other. They just use each other for safety,” Hall said. “But these guys are definitely bonded. They cry if one goes outside without the other to go potty or anything.\u201d<\/p>\n

The dogs, later named Polly, Damien and Barkley, are now in foster care, but their story isn\u2019t over yet. They’re searching for a forever home that\u2019ll, hopefully, welcome the entire little family.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt would be amazing<\/em> if they could all be adopted together,\u201d Hall said. \u201cThey\u2019re so sweet.\u201d<\/p>\n

While Hall searches for the perfect family for Polly, Damien and Barkley, the adorable pack remains closer than ever.<\/p>\n

They don\u2019t have to survive out on the street anymore, but they\u2019re still sticking together no matter what.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
