Today I pulled these two from a very high kill shelter, they had been there a while and yes I believe mom had her pups there also. Looks like only one survived and she is very protective of him. She was a bit confused with all the fuss about him, and her too. I got them to boarding and she settled right down once the pup was back with her. The stress levels are so high when making all the moves. But it has to be done if they are to move on to better places; and for most, almost anywhere is better than where they came from.
