Unfortunately, they soon realized that most shelters in the area were already full to the brim with animals. Eventually, someone contacted Lake Lowell Animal Rescue. Though the rescue was similarly overpopulated, Lake Lowell Animal Rescue staff knew the puppies needed help.<\/p>\n<p>Safe with the rescue, the puppies received veterinary care.
