🛠️🧡 This is one of those rescue stories we will never forget 🧡🛠️<br/><br/>For nearly two weeks, a heavily pregnant German Shepherd had been spotted wandering around a Home Depot parking lot. Somehow, she had been surviving on her own while preparing to bring an entire litter into the world.<br/><br/>💙 When we heard about her, we knew we had to help. <br/><br/>Around 10 PM, rescuers were able to approach her, and perhaps she knew she needed help—because after being on the run, she gave up surprisingly easily. She was safely loaded into our rescue vehicle and began her freedom ride.<br/><br/>💙 Within minutes of getting into the vehicle, Mama began to deliver.<br/><br/>We transported her to our Medical Director quickly, helping her give birth to her first few puppies in the back seat.<br/><br/>Instead of delivering her babies alone in a parking lot, she gave birth in a safe, loving home. With the assistance of our Medical Director, she gave birth over the next several hours to nine beautiful, healthy puppies.<br/><br/>💙 Nine little lives who came into this world warm, protected, and loved—all because their mama was rescued at exactly the right moment. <br/><br/>Her name was chosen as a tribute to the place where her journey to her new life began:<br/><br/>🧡 Maisie Dee<br/>🏠 Maisón — “home” in French, giving us Maisie for short<br/>🛠️ Dee — short for Depot<br/><br/>Maisie has spent the weeks since devoted to raising her puppies. Now, as they grow and prepare for lives of their own, it is finally time for Mama to find her happy ending: a family and a home that will be hers forever 🏠💕<br/><br/>Maisie is as loyal as they come, exactly what you’d want and expect from a shepherd. She is a family dog thru and thru, she enjoys children and loves to play fetch and chase a ball . She also loves chilling on the cold floor or cuddled up next to you on the couch. She has been around many other foster dogs in her foster home of all ages and sizes and has done great for being a street dog who had zero manners when she came to us.<br/>Though she lives with 3 cats in the home ,She does have prey drive and will chase a cat and there is potential for something bad to happen so an ideal home would be no cats.<br/><br/>If you’d like to support Maisie and her family, you can visit our website at 💙 www.ruffdayrescue.org 💙 to learn more about fostering, adopting, or donating. We’re able to execute these rescue missions because of support from people like you 🐶🥰
