The puppies appear to be in good health, but will remain at NHVS for the next 24 hours under observation, veterinarians said. Once they are medically cleared, they will be turned over to Abandoned Animal Rescue, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to saving abandoned animals.
People interested in adopting the puppies or donating to their care and other animals like them should visit the AAR website.
