Rescue One received a call from Rescue One about the three adult huskies that had been left in a house late one evening. They immediately agreed to help. The rescue team headed for Highlandville, Missouri the next morning. They pulled up in the driveway and the two huskies ran up to them.
Or so they thought.
The executive director of Rescue One, Stephanie Shelton, stated in a press statement: “The property was very overgrown and it was obvious no one had been there for some time. Through the home’s window, we saw the mother dog. We got our slip leads ready and opened the door. The dog ran out. Our volunteer quickly shut the door behind the mom and yelled, ‘Puppies!’”
The team was shocked to see eight adorable puppies running at them as they opened the door again, this time more cautiously.

They were thrilled to be able remove all the puppies from the abandoned home. The 11 dogs had been bitten by fleas and were dehydrated. They were however all otherwise healthy.
“We headed back to our office and gave all of the puppies baths and everyone food and water,” Shelton said. “Due to overcrowding in our rescue, the mom and puppies will be transferred and already have applications for adoption when they are ready through our partner rescue, Unleashed Pet Rescue, and the males, Mongoose and Badger, will be available for adoption at rescueonespringfield.com.”

All of the rescue team members were not prepared for the rescue. All of them will soon find their forever homes.
