YouTube, News 9 YouTubeMother instincts don’t only apply to a mom’s children, but they also tend to be protective and caring toward other kids as they can picture their own little ones in them.
Meet Mitzi
YouTube, News 9 YouTubeMitzi Brogdon is the president and director of Street Dog Rescue & Recovery, and she just rescued a mama dog and 16 more puppies in one day.
How They Met
YouTube, News 9 YouTubeShe was just walking one day when she passed the cell tower near the Oklahoma animal shelter. There, she noticed a brown and black dog on the side of the street who seemed to be waiting for someone.
She Followed Her
YouTube, News 9 YouTubeMitzi approached the dog, and she saw how friendly she was. She let her pet her, and when she was about to bring the dog with her, she saw that she was acting differently and wanted her to follow her instead.
A Litter Of Puppies
YouTube, News 9 YouTubeMitzi said, “She started walking up the path to the cell tower, and I followed her. That’s when I saw all the puppies spilling out from behind this fallen log.”
16 Little Pups
YouTube, News 9 YouTubeThe little puppies started coming out of the log one by one, and by the end of it all, Mitzi counted a total of 16 puppies.
She’s A Great Mom
YouTube, News 9 YouTubeMitzi eventually realized that the 16 puppies must have come from three different litters and the mama dog, who was named Dolly, must have been taking care of all of them all by herself for all this time.
She Took Them In

They’re In Good Hands

Best Mom
