Georgia Shelter Staff Opens A Donation Box Left Outside, And Four Eyes Suddenly Peek Out

Donation Box

Every year, countless pups end up in shelters, desperately waiting for a second chance at life. The number may vary, but sadly, it’s always high.

Yet, each one of these dogs is more than just a number. They are living beings with dreams, emotions, and heartbreaking stories.

Just imagine what they go through. The confusion, the loneliness, the longing for someone to love them. If it weren’t for shelters and rescue groups, who knows what would become of them.

The story I’m about to share is just one of many. But it will tug at your heart and remind you just how precious every life is.

In Georgia, the Moultrie Colquitt County Humane Society staff pours their hearts into saving as many animals as possible. Every day, they work tirelessly, doing everything they can with limited resources.

But even with their best efforts, they can’t do it alone. They rely on the kindness of generous donors to stay afloat.

To make it easier for people to help, the shelter recently set up a donation box outside, welcoming food and supplies from anyone who wants to pitch in.

These donations enable them to keep going and continue rescuing lives. Without this support, countless animals would be left without a chance at a better future.

Then, one early morning, they found something unexpected in the box, something they didn’t typically receive.

But it turned out to be one of the most heartwarming donations they had ever received: two tiny puppies curled up in the back of the box, waiting for someone to find them.

It was hot outside and even hotter inside that wooden box. They had been left there without air, struggling to breathe.

The puppies were in such a poor state. If no one had opened the box when they did, who knows what would’ve happened.

The shelter staff reviewed the security footage and discovered that the puppies had been left sometime after 10:30 PM when no one was around.

They had spent the night alone, trapped in that box, in the sweltering heat.

But when the staff examined them, the pups were surprisingly okay. No infections, no injuries, just two healthy girls in need of a little love. The shelter shared on Facebook:

“They are retriever/bulldog mix puppies and are about 2 months old now. They are around 7-8 pounds and are happy little girls… Both are great little girls and love the attention they have been receiving.”

They named them Polly and Dolly, and at first, they were a little shy. But as soon as they realized they were safe, their personalities started to shine through.

Now, at three months old, Polly and Dolly are ready for their forever homes. The shelter has posted them up for adoption, and thankfully, people are starting to reach out.

I bet these sweet pups won’t have to wait long to find the loving families they deserve.

The shelter continues to care for all animals in need, and with every donation, another life is saved. They still check that donation box every day because who knows what surprise might be waiting there next!
