Stacy Batson works in Quincy. Florida. She took her usual route home from work. However, she didn’t realize that her day would end with an emergency rescue. She responded to Batson’s call and stopped when a little dog darted out of the roadside vegetation and pursued his vehicle.
Batson, a weak and hungry dog, was introduced to Batson by his sibling.
Batson wasn’t yet confident with the white and brown puppy.
“He leaned on the other for confidence, it seemed,” Batson said. “But both had very sweet natures about them.”
“They were starving, so I shared my lunch that I didn’t eat with the two of them,” Batson said. “It completely broke my heart.”
The siblings felt secure enough to sniff Batson’s hand after they ate some of his leftovers. She doesn’t know how long they survived, but she knew that she had to do something to stop them starving and being left alone.
Here’s a video of their first encounter.

She claims that her uncle Silas is the true hero in spite of Batson’s first call to arms.
“He picked them up and took them to a rescue,” Batson said. “I wanted to make sure they were safe and taken care of.”
Shelter was saved by Rescue Paws Pet Refuge Inc.
After receiving the veterinarian’s all-clear, Burger and Sketti will be placed in their forever home together in a foster home. Batson did not directly care for them after her rescue but regularly checked in on them via social media to find out how they were doing.
Here’s how you can see them come to life:

The puppies were initially wary of humans touching them, but they now play and give kisses.
“The pups have been doing well,” according to Batson. “It thrills me that such a small gesture of kindness has reached and touched so many.”
