As New Mexico friends Barbara Juarez and Kerri Rains were heading home, they spotted the unimaginable: six adorable puppies left to die on the side of a highway.
“They were just inches from being squashed by semis and other vehicles,” Juarez told New Mexico's KRQE.
They found the hopeless pups petrified, shaking, and dehydrated. One even appeared to be hurt and was limping.
The two women refused to leave the innocent puppies on the road. Just like the two adventurers who saved a puppy abandoned in the desert, they stepped in to rescue them.
“They were thrown away like trash and I don’t like that,” said Rains, later adding, "It’s going to make me cry. It was heartbreaking to see them dumped on the road."
Juarez and Rains decided the best solution was to scoop the pups up and take them to Albuquerque rescue New Mexico K-911. President Kelcy Clark took the dogs in without hesitation and put them up for adoption.
The white puppy in the video, which looks like a little Jack Russell terrier, was quickly adopted. The others are still waiting to find their forever home.
“It’s horrible," Clark said. "These dogs deserve a chance."
