Mother dog and puppies found by West Cork Animal Welfare.

A Cork animal welfare group, who came to the rescue of a female dog and seven puppies in recent days, says that they are all now "doing well". 

West Cork Animal Welfare Group shared a photo on Facebook of a dog chained to a gate, writing “Last night the rescue got a call from someone who came home to find this poor dog chained to the gate and seven little wet and cold puppies with her.

“She had jumped through the gate and could have hung herself as she couldn't even get to them.” 

The dogs were collected by the organisation, and were immediately fed and given a cosy bed. 

The organisation reported that the mother dog “is skin and bone" but said that they "are all doing well".

“She isn't chipped and we have no idea who did this. If we do find out it will be passed to the relevant authorities,” the post said.

The organisation has asked the public to donate to support them in caring for the dogs, and other animals they care for.
