This Dog Had Finally Found A Forever Home, But She Risked Everything To Save Her Puppies

The Watkins family found a border collie-mix dog on wandering the streets. They got her into their car and took her home and named her Gypsy. Gypsy behaved like a normal dog, she ate food and slept, but on the third day, she grew restless and seemed worried. Something was wrong. The next morning, Gypsy was gone.

The Watkins family went out in search of her – and found her. Gypsy had put her seven tiny puppies in a shallow dirt hole and covered them with some tumbleweeds. The family assumed that she went out to look for food, and that is when they found her. Nikki Jo Watkins knew that the puppies, who were about three-weeks-old at the time, needed to be taken in and cared for – along with their mother!
