RohanUnplanned pregnancy is a very common medical term and it is even more common to the beings on this planet as well. Although adoption of dogs is fairly common, but when this pregnant dog gave birth to four puppies, their appearance took everyone by surprise.
The Pregnant Adopted Dog
Late in 2017, John and Katie Black adopted and fostered a dog who was pregnant. They were pretty much aware of her condition. They also knew that the birth time was near. But what they witnessed on the day of the unassisted delivery was unbelievable. The appearance of the babies which she gave birth to surprised the couple as well as the new mom.
Dedicated Dog Lovers
The Blacks are dedicated dog lovers who were the residents of Raleigh, North Carolina. This couple is parents to three rescued dogs – Annie, Leroy, and Winchester. But since 2009, the Blacks offered a foster home for dogs in need. They wanted to provide support to pregnant dogs to avoid birth injuries.
Registered Foster Parents
The Blacks were registered foster parents for the Neuse River Golden Retriever Rescue shelter, which is located in their hometown. Their dedication and love towards the canines were commendable. They selflessly worked for the betterment of the dogs. However, one of their recent foster dog was a hit on social media, particularly Facebook and Twitter.
Rosie was disowned in October 2017
The couple adopted Rosie from a local shelter. Rosie, a golden retriever mix, was disowned by her previous owners as they left her at the shelter in October 2017. She was not only pregnant but was about to give birth. The manager of the shelter was really worried about her condition, he feared that she would give birth in the shelter home itself.
Volunteer Expected That She Would Give Birth on the Way!
Considering her condition, the manager called up the golden retriever caretakers at Neuse River. One of the volunteers from the rescue center picked up Rosie from the shelter, the very next morning. Looking at her condition, the volunteer was half-heartedly convinced that the dog would give birth on their way to Raleigh Vet Clinic.
The Rescue Center asks Blacks to foster the pregnant dog
After Rosie’s check up at the vets, the staff at Neuse River asked Blacks to foster her. John and Katie were excited to foster the pregnant Rosie. They were on cloud 9 knowing that there was going to be an addition to their family. When the Blacks brought her home on October 28, 2017, they posted a picture of the mom-to-be on their Instagram account, captioning it as “our golden years.”
