Puppy miracle times five
The Aiderbichl Estate
Christmas miracle 2021
Many abandoned dogs have found a forever home at Gut Aiderbichl in recent years. A few weeks ago, a black dog was standing in front of the gate of the Gut Aiderbichl Shelter in Romania. She ran up and down the street and finally just stopped in front of the gate. Our staff brought her into the warmth and gave the dog food.
Juno ate very well and seemed to feel good. All the staff wanted to help and to know that the black, young mixed-breed was well as soon as possible, and it was probably successful. The round little belly, however, made one wonder. The veterinarian examined Juno and with a smile on his face he indicated that Juno had five puppies in her belly. So far everything seemed to be all right.
Juno's trip to Salzburg
It was decided to transport the pregnant dog to Gut Aiderbichl Henndorf. The date of birth of the puppies was uncertain.
If she had given birth to the pups in Romania, there would have been a five-week waiting period for entry after the vaccinations. We wanted to spare Juno and her puppies that.
In the meantime, Juno moved into a nice room with a dog bed. Now all that remained was to wait.
Birth on Krampus Day
Traditionally, the Krampus comes on the 5th of December. He is a creepy figure of terror and stands for good and evil. Juno's puppies were born calmly and without Krampus in her warm room. The birth went off without a hitch and Juno couldn't stop licking her five dry puppies. She happily lay down and let them suckle her milk with pleasure.
Juno's kindergarten
Juno's puppies are called Julius, Jacob, Jana, Jim and Jessy. Each puppy has a different coat colour: Julius is brown with a white ruff, Jacob is semi-brown, Jessy is the same colour as Jacob, Jana is black like mum and Jim is brown, black and white.
Since the 16th of December their little eyes are open and the weight is going up. Theys are always hungry and Juno patiently lies down in her dog bed, happy that her babies are well, that they live in a warm, clean room and are cared for all around by the Aiderbichl staff. She can only really rest when her little rascals are asleep.
The message from Julius, Jacob, Jana, Jim and Jessy
Christmas is just around the corner. Juno's shelter search had a happy outcome and the puppies will never have a bad experience. The message to people should be not to give animals as gifts at Christmas. Juno's little puppies will not remain little babies either, but will grow up and demand love, occupation and food.
