@bestyears “Best” thing I’ve read all morning!

Special thanks to Lily and you as well.

Meadow ❤️

Lucky Lily, lucky, lucky Meadow, and lucky pups. Good timing on Meadow's part. I am amazed that she had 11 puppies, but so glad she was in a safe and warm home. This has made my day and probably week and month, too! Keep the photos coming.

Oh my gosh! what a heartwarming story. You and your daughter are so kind to help out Meadow. Hope she and her pups find good homes.

Thank you for sharing this. You are both amazing.

What perfect timing...can't imagine having puppies out in the cold with no food source. Thank you for saving them and for posting for us!

Amazing commitment and lovely names— esp on the males. Best wishes to all. Is your daughter receiving support from a shelter or sanctuary I hope?

The rescue that trapped them is the most amazing place. They did not charge us to trap her and they took care of the vet visit yesterday. I think they are planning to do more fundraising for her and babies, and my daughter will too. We bought $100 worth of formula and that’s almost gone LOL.

We always used colored yarn collars to tell the pups apart when they are all colored the same. I'd use two colors often, Like blue + (color) for boys and pink + for girls. So you could have Green boy and Green girl, for example. I just used the cheap skeins of yarn. Change the collars, maintaining same colors, of course, every three days or so.

Great names!

Wow! That is so wonderful that your family took Meadow in! It's a lot of work, but such a kindness to innocent animals. Huge litter too! I hope they all find wonderful, loving homes.

Oh my goodness, how precious! Meadow has very wise eyes and looks so content now thanks to you and your DD. 🥰

Thank you for sharing, Best! Such a wonderful story. :)

Those pups were just hoding off to leave the warm womb without heading into the cold!

Cute names! When our poodle had puppies, we knew them by their ribbon color. Except for the one puppy who was a toasty color rqther than whie, he was Toast. Our poodle had come from a litter where their litter names were cocktail beverages. I think ours was Gin, in close cahoots with her brother Tonic. It was the early ’60s, after all, cocktail culture.

how sweet......and I love those names. The shelter I volunteer with, frequently gives themed names to the puppy crews. Spices, characters from TV shows, using one letter, etc.

I always think of Hyacinth and Daisy and Rose. :)

Beautiful family you have there.

OMG - the sweetest thing - both the pups and you kind souls who are taking care of them!

There's a special place in heaven for people who do things like this, Best! What a story and what a beautiful Mom and puppies!

I would love to donate to the shelter your daughter is working with if you would be OK sharing that information.

Thank you so much uberbeachy -it’s called Jack Jack’s Pack and it’s in Austin. They are amazing. I think they’ve rescued five street dogs just this week, each one in more deplorable condition than the last. If you do donate, please specify that it is for Meadow.

OMG, lucky dog!

Thank you and your daughter for helping this dog. Wow! Eleven pups!! 🐕 (Tina Marie)

So sweet! Love all the names.

What a great story! How old does the vet think the mom is?

Please share more photos as they become available. 💕♥️

I am going to send in a donation tomorrow - I will let them know it's for Meadow.

I am so happy that she was able to be caught and brought into a warm home before giving birth.

Please do share more photos! ❤️❤️💕

Congrats! Such little bundles of adorability!

What a sweet story and a caring thing to do!

Such a gorgeous little family! Bless you for taking such good care of them.

I’m late only cuz ykw kept making me sigh up…grr. This made my eyes dampen. Bless you and you lovely daughter .

A VERY worthwhile cause! What sweet puppies! ❤️ ❤️❤️

How do we specifiy the donation is for Meadow and her babies? I couldn't see a place to do that under the Donate button on their website.

Oh shoot, 3katz, let me ask the rescue and I'll post it as an update on my original post.

These little collars are saving our sanity!

Wonderful pictures and a beautiful family for your sweet dog.

How sweet and kind - such a good thing!

With no care while she was pregnant, it is a wonder you only lost three. Although three is three too many

My husband and son found a pregnant lab in the woods. She was no where near any house and had to of been dumped. Her name ended up being Sweet Girl and she was. I think there were ten puppies.

Oh my gosh, you and your DD are angels. A friend of mine adopted her most recent dog from that rescue group. I will also be sending in a donation for Meadow.

What a wonderful tail! (Pun intended.) You and your daughter are indeed kind and generous, and this world needs that!
