Russia is famous for being one of the coldest countries in the world with temperatures sometimes reaching -55 or even -66 degrees Celsius in the north.

On the morning of December 20, the snow removal worker suddenly saw a group of puppies leaning against each other to keep warm, the small body shivering, sometimes whining while rubbing its nose at the mother dog. very poor. He immediately approached and reached out his hand to examine the mother dog, but found that its body had been stiff ever since.
When found, the poor mother dog was dead lying on her side nursing her cubs. The man rushed to find a cardboard box to take the 7 puppies away, but when he was about to pick them up, they suddenly ran away. In it, the youngest dog is still biting her mother’s body, cowering in fear. The sight of a mother dog holding her cubs in her arms, vowing to die of the cold to warm them and 7 puppies, despite being hungry and cold, still determined not to leave their mother’s lap, touched the snow man. Therefore, he went to the rescue station and along with the staff there to search for the small dogs. But as soon as they arrived, the snowstorm suddenly came, so they had to leave the mother dog’s body in the same place. However, just a moment later, the puppies suddenly returned to look for their mother.
Fortunately, this was only a small blizzard and did not cause serious damage. However, it took them nearly 2 days to find all the puppies. After checking, the staff of the rescue station discovered that there was a red collar on the mother dog’s neck, from which it can be guessed that this dog has an owner. But so far it is not clear whether it was abandoned or lost. The cause of death of the mother dog was determined to be starvation, exhaustion and then freezing to death. Although not in time to save the mother dog, in return, the rescue team and the kind man were able to bring 7 puppies to the local animal rescue station. After a few days of intensive care, they have recovered and are preparing to welcome Christmas with other dogs in the rescue station.
