Barefoot and pregnant in the Summertime

I avoid anything on 4 feet under the age of 2 like the plague. So then how is it I find myself caring for a precious Eskie girl about to give birth to 6, maybe 7? Some citizen (well you'll have to agree they could not have been human) tied the sweet little thing to a bench in front of the local humane shelter and left her there. More info and pics to come!
