A mother dog was frantically trying to free her puppies after the demolition of her den buried them beneath the debris. Animal Aid Unlimited, India arrived to assist with the situation.
As soon as the dog sees them she wags her tail frantically and she whines, asking them for help.

Even if she fears the puppies may have already died, the mother dog already knows precisely where she was when the rescuers began digging to break up the breach. She lays her snout on the ground, encouraging the rescuers as they work to grab stones and rubble separate.

She begins to frantically dig by their side – biting stones and pawing the dirt – showing them where to focus their attention. She makes sure they hurry as “she seemed to realize that they could suffocate at any moment.”
