Carter Cifelli, a resident of North Carolina, USA, got a surprise when he gave a shelter dog a temporary home.
The woman named the new pet Poppy, but Carter immediately realized that Poppy was not alone, quite the contrary, she also brought other puppies to the owner’s house. Simply the cutest gifts!

After a few days, Poppy had already adjusted to the new home and woke up and repeated the routine of everyday life, having breakfast and resting in the sun. So the woman thought that everything was fine and decided to do a photo shoot of the bitch to enjoy the last days of pregnancy.

She was very calm during labor and knew exactly what to do. There were no complications and all her puppies were healthy!” added the owner.
Mom and puppies were placed in a comfortable and soft place. The 7 puppies are getting healthy every day and at 3 weeks they seem to be active and playful, soon all will be available for adoption including Poppy.
