It’s a grim tale of neglect and heartlessness. Lara’s owner deemed her and her unborn puppies unworthy of care, opting for a despicable act instead. Abandoning her in the wilderness near Nafplion, Greece, was the unimaginable fate chosen for this heavily pregnant dog.
Alone and restrained in the chilling forest, Lara underwent the harrowing ordeal of giving birth while still tied to the tree. Her resilience shone as she not only endured but fiercely protected her offspring amidst the harsh conditions—deprived of sustenance, warmth, and safety.
When compassionate villagers alerted rescuers to Lara’s dire situation, a swift response led to her and her puppies’ rescue. Tragically, one of the newborns didn’t survive, but thanks to the dedicated care of the rescuers, Lara and her three surviving puppies began their road to recovery, slowly regaining their health and vitality.
