Rescuers Enter An Abandoned House And Find So Many Babies Watching Them

Donna Lochmann of Stray Rescue of St. Louis often checks abandoned buildings for homeless animals. One day, she and her partner Natalie Thomson spotted a gray pit bull barking at them from the yard of an abandoned house — a mother guarding her puppies inside.

As they approached, the dog slowly warmed up and allowed them onto the property. Navigating tornado debris and entering through a broken window, the rescuers found the house filled with trash and in severe disrepair. Upstairs, they discovered a group of curious puppies, who quickly scattered and hid in the mess.

Despite the challenging conditions, the team began searching through the debris — soon spotting eyes peeking out from behind a mattress.
