Dog Gives Birth to Puppies – When the Vet Sees Them, She Says “Those Aren’t Puppies!”

Three weeks earlier, Luna had appeared on the bend near Hollow Creek Road, ribs showing beneath a swollen belly. Ava almost drove past her at first. The dog was standing beside the ditch in the rain, trembling but not running, as if she had used up every bit of strength getting there. The shelter had been full. The animal control officer asked if Ava could keep her for “just a few nights.” Ava had agreed, then bought blankets, puppy food, and a secondhand dog bed before the week was over.
