‘When I went to collect them, the male was collapsed on top of his dead sibling; it was heartbreaking.
‘I rushed the surviving pup to our veterinary hospital where he was given emergency treatment.

‘He’s still on a drip and is receiving round-the-clock care. Thankfully his temperature has come down and he’s starting to eat on his own so I really hope he pulls through.’

‘I’m now concerned about their mother and any other littermates who could also need veterinary treatment.’
