A shelter dog in Canada became a social media star after she was found on the side of a road protecting five kittens.
The dog, named Serenity, was picked up by an animal control officer in Ontario earlier this month. A post from Pet and Wildlife rescue in Chatham, Ontario was shared across the United States and Canada.
Serenity and the kittens have received offers for adoption, though staff said they’re trying to select the best home for the pup and the kittens -- though the kittens are not old enough to be on their own. They’re with a foster family and will be there until they’re adopted. Serenity is available for adoption December 3. See the shelter’s posts below.
Our stray sweetheart is keeping her “babies” safe at the shelter tonight!
