Tiny Puppies Saved After Being Found In A California Dumpster Thanks To A Caring Worker

Not all cries for help are loud; some come from the smallest voices in the unlikeliest places.

In San Dimas, California, a deeply upsetting scene unfolded behind a row of businesses. It all started with faint whimpers, barely audible but filled with desperation.

For three tiny German Shepherd puppies, those soft cries were their last chance for survival.

Abandoned like trash in a dumpster, the sweet pups were covered in dirt, weak from hunger, and infested with fleas and ticks. 

They clung together, terrified and confused, too young to grasp why this was happening to them. 

Only about three months old, they were just babies, still trying to understand the world – and yet, they had been discarded as if they were nothing.

Their salvation came by chance. A bakery worker stepped outside for a break and was immediately drawn to the faint cries. 

He followed the sound and soon found himself at a business complex, where he discovered one pup nestled in a pile of refuse.

But she wasn’t content to stay silent – she nipped at his leg as if pleading, “Please help… my sisters are still inside.”

Without hesitation, the man rescued each sister from the dumpster, carefully lifting their frail, dirty bodies. 

He quickly reached out to a local Facebook group for lost and found pets, hoping someone would step in and help.

Someone did.

Carolyn Castro, an animal lover and admin of the group, saw the post and was immediately heartbroken. 

The thought of these innocent puppies abandoned in such a cruel manner haunted her. As she put it in an interview:

“I don’t think there is anything that can justify or give a reason as to why they were dumped in the trash.”

Carolyn brought the pups to Village Mutt, a local grooming and rescue center that specializes in neglected dogs. 

There, they received the care they so desperately needed. They were bathed, cleaned, and rid of their fleas and ticks. 

For the first time in what seemed like forever, they felt safe and loved.

Once they were taken care of, the next chapter of their journey began: Finding their forever homes. 

April Bank, the compassionate owner of Village Mutt, offered her support, saying:

“I’m offering three months of food for them and then six months of baths. We have a self-dog wash here. So, they’ll be clean for at least six months.”

Meanwhile, Carolyn continued to work tirelessly to uncover who had abandoned the puppies, determined to bring the culprit to justice.

“Putting them in the trash, it’s an evil person, and I hope there’s video footage. I hope somebody knows something where it can be brought to light, so these dogs get justice.”

Thankfully, these adorable puppies are no longer hungry or afraid. They have found comfort in soft blankets and, most importantly, in each other. 

Three sisters who were once discarded have been given a second chance at life.
