She was surrounded by piles of feces and urine,” said Eileen Drever, the charity’s senior officer of protection and stakeholder relations, in a media release.
After being taken to the local shelter, Noelle delivered a healthy litter of puppies. All eight dogs have been taken into foster care and will soon be available for adoption.
