When the team at Stray Rescue of Saint Louis got a call about a stray on the streets, they knew exactly how to respond.

But this case would be a little trickier than usual:

“We’d been tracking a skinny, nursing stray, surviving the mean streets. But we couldn’t rescue mom until we found her puppies,” the team explained on YouTube.

Fortunately, the stray — who the team named Hulu after she was rescued — didn’t take long to return to her den after searching for food. She lead the team back to a house, then crawled underneath its floorboards to the crawlspace where she was sheltering her ten puppies.

The puppies, who were younger than two weeks old, didn’t even have their eyes open yet! They were found, huddled together for warmth.

The team was able to lure Hulu out of the den with some food, making sure she was safe and out of their way as they began to help the puppies.

One team member crawled in and was able to collect them into a small cardboard box.

The rescue, which took place in 2018, was a complete success! Unfortunately, the team has not provided an update on the pups since, though they have reposted the video recently.

Hopefully, Hulu and her pups have found their forever homes now — they certainly deserve to be much warmer this winter! Watch the rescue video below:
