Park-goers Stop In Their Tracks When They See Furry Babies Trapped By The Water

Kelli Miller and her 15-year-old daughter, Jordan, were getting ready to play some pickleball at a park in South Carolina when a woman came up to them and told them about three babies who desperately needed their help. The woman let them know that there were some tiny puppies by the park’s brook, with no parents in sight.

Miller and her daughter immediately went over to the brook and found that not only were the puppies all alone, but they were also stuck in the water with no way of getting out.

“It’s not like they were trying to drink and we discovered them. They were stuck … they were just standing there out of sheer fear,” Miller told The Dodo.

Jordan sprang into action. She went right down to the creek and got to work extracting the puppies.

The smallest of the three puppies was almost completely submerged in the rushing water.

“I don’t think [he] would have lasted for too long,” Miller said. “He was freezing. I mean, he was really wet and shaking.”

Thankfully, it wasn’t long before Jordan was able to successfully save the babies.

As to how the puppies got in their predicament in the first place, Miller isn’t sure. While she would like to think perhaps a stray dog just had her puppies in the area, she thinks it’s more likely that they were dumped there.

Since they’d been stuck in the water, the puppies were sopping wet. Miller and her daughter put the babies in the bed of Miller’s truck so they could have a dry, warm place to rest.

Miller said she was relieved to find that even though the puppies had been through a scary ordeal, they seemed like they were going to be just fine.

“On the whole, they didn’t seem too bad. I don’t think they’d been in the brook for too long,” Miller said.

Miller called a local K9 unit, who came and took the puppies to the Florence Area Humane Society. At the shelter, they named them Shep, Vin and Caspar. All three are available for adoption — surely, they’ll get snatched up in no time.

“We were just grateful that we were able to help,” Miller said.
