Mama June

Mama June was surrendered to Southern Indiana Animal Rescue's care while very pregnant. A few days later, she gave birth to ten adorable puppies. June was a wonderful mama until out of the blue she got very ill and was no longer able to care for her babies. 

Mama June and four out of her ten puppies were admitted to the hospital. They were diagnosed with Parvovirus, mom, and the 4 puppies. That same night, 4 additional puppies became critically ill and were hospitalized. The following day the remaining 2 puppies fell ill and were also hospitalized. Momma June and her 10 puppies were all critically ill and fighting for their lives. 

Unfortunately, only 4 of Mama June’s puppies survived and were in critical care. Mama June herself ended up being hospitalized for 12 days. After multiple plasma treatments Mama June was finally able to go live with her foster mother. Unable to see her remaining babies, River, Sampson, Sky, and Sandy, Mama June fell into what was thought to be postpartum depression. Mama June was admitted into the hospital again as she was still critical. While the sweet mother was in the hospital, two of the remaining four babies passed. After another week of hospitalization, Mama June was finally able to go back to her foster mom's home. 

This time Mama June refused to go back into the hospital, she started eating and becoming more healthy every single day. The foster mom said she became one of the most loving dogs she’s ever had the joy of fostering. Mama June turned her life around completely, and after three long months of treatment and recovery, this miracle mama was put up for adoption. 

It didn’t take long for Mama June to get adopted, in fact, it only took her a couple of weeks. She is now living with a happy couple, who welcomed her into their home with a loving embrace. In fact, Mama June now has a brother who practically looks like her twin! It seems Mama June’s days are spent running and playing with her brother in her backyard, and getting all the love she has ever deserved. 

We want to give thanks to those who gave Mama June the support she and her puppies desperately needed in order to reach their fullest potential. Without amazing people like you, Mama June wouldn’t be thriving like she is now. So thank you so much to all the fellow cuddlers.
