A dog on death row gave her fosterer a big surprise when she turned up at his home very pregnant! It all began when Nicholas agreed to foster a dog his friend had spotted a dog at a shelter in Charlotte, North Carolina.
The female dog named โEmmaโ was scheduled to be euthanized and time was running out Nicholasโs friend knew that Nicholas had fostered a dog before and connected him with Jesseโs Place Rescue Inc. (aka Save The Labs), Fox 13 News reported.
Nick wrote the rescue, โIโm interested in fostering and possibly adopting this sweet girlโฆIโm very patient, calm, gentle, and have plenty of time to work with her. My last rescued boy died in 2016 from cancer.โ
Luckily, Nicholas had experience birthing farm animals, Fox 13 learned. And rather than return Emma to the shelter for the birth, Nick would deliver Emmaโs pups himself. So, with the help of his friend, Sheena, Emma delivered 6 healthy puppies!
All the puppies and mama are doing well. Nicolas will continue to care for Emma and her babies, who will undoubtedly find loving forever homes with help from Jesseโs Place Rescue.
