A kind-hearted Dublin couple helped save an abandoned pregnant dog who was on the brink of death.
Lurcher, Rainbow, was found severely malnourished when she wandered into their garden ready to give birth late on St Patrick's Day this year. Poor Rainbow was dehydrated and completely exhausted.
The couple sat with Rainbow all night as she gave birth to 10 puppies. They brought the mother and her babies to Dogs Trust the following day.
