Puppies Rescued From Parking Garage Day After Christmas: Pennsylvania SPCA

PHILADELPHIA — Six puppies left at ACCT Philly the day after Christmas are now safe in foster homes, according to officials.

The Pennsylvania SPCA's Animal Law Enforcement team was contacted on Dec. 26 regarding the puppies. They were reportedly found in a parking garage.

The puppies, estimated to be three to four weeks old, were immediately taken into the care of the PSPCA. They were given names including Choco Christmas, Brownie Smiles, Sir Chocolates, Pecan, Butterfinger, and Nutellas.

Officials with the PSPCA noted that instances of animal cruelty or neglect, and pets being abandoned, occur more often than desired. They described these animals as vulnerable and dependent on care.

Hope for these animals comes from foster families who quickly offered their support. All six puppies are now in safe, warm foster homes. There, they will continue to grow stronger each day.

The PSPCA is committed to providing the puppies with all necessary care. This includes medical attention, vaccinations, and eventual spay/neuter procedures. The goal is for them to find loving forever homes and avoid future abandonment.

The organization stated that community support makes this care possible for these puppies and other animals in need. They also urged anyone struggling with pet ownership to reach out for assistance.

Anyone with information about these puppies or their origin is asked to contact the Animal Cruelty Hotline at 866-601-7722 or email cruelty@pspca.org. The PSPCA is located at 350 E. Erie Ave. in Philadelphia.
