Mom was found with two puppies in a pipe at a data center construction/mine site and brought to the shelter. After leaving, two more puppies were found. The fourth puppy ultimately was euthanized around 5 weeks old because she wasn't gaining weight and her lungs were rattling, but the other three were healthy. All were UTD on vaccines but not yet spayed at time of intake.
