Stressful Conditions
According to the article, research shows that animals are prone to trauma and plenty of stress at rescue shelters. Naturally, a pregnant dog experiences a greater risk than others. Shelters may have been built with the aim of helping dogs, but it is clear that the crowded environment is not the best for these creatures. Needless to say, a home like Mariesa and Chris’ would be a far better fit.
Realizing How Dangerous The Situation Is
Mariesa and Chris continued doing their research and came to the realization that the situation was actually worse than what they thought. If things did not change, Storie might lose all of her puppies and she could also die. According to what Mariesa read online, pregnant dogs experiencing trauma worry a lot for their puppies and they sometimes even refuse to give birth altogether. This is because the mother dogs feel that their puppies would not be safe. The couple saw how dangerous things were and thought they had to take the very pregnant Storie to the vet immediately if they had no intention of losing their family’s newest addition.
