Bessie the Lost Battersea Bassett Finds Love and Hope in Motherhood
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this heartwarming photo print, we see Bessie, a four-year-old Bassett hound who was found distressed on the famous Hackney Marshes. Rescued and taken into custody at St Annes Road Police Station, she was later named Bessie by her caring kennel maid at Battersea Dogs Home. Bessie's journey has been filled with hardships, but her resilience shines through as she proudly embraces motherhood. Before Christmas, when kennel maids discovered that she was pregnant, they took turns feeding and comforting her during her illness. Eventually, Bessie gave birth to ten adorable puppies over a span of four days. Sadly, only two of the puppies survived despite the tremendous care provided by kennel maid Gillian Harmer and her colleagues. However, these surviving pups—Bill and Bette—are now thriving under their mother's watchful eye. While awaiting their forever homes on the list for adoption seekers, Bessie is showered with love and attention from everyone around her. She may have once been part of the legion of lost souls but now finds solace in knowing that she is cherished.
