There are so many things we can learn from our furry buddies regarding relationships, love, and doing good to others. Although our pooches can’t talk, they can teach us valuable lessons.

Maggie, an Aussie-crossbred doggo, did an amazing thing for puppies that were barking and whimpering from their kennel – she literally snuck out of her place to find those poor babies and comfort them the best way she could.

To be honest, I’m not sure many hoomans would do anything similar to what Maggie did, which is why she’s an incredible pooch with a big heart and lots of courage.

Mother Instincts Kick In

Maggie is an adult female doggo that was left in Barkers Pet Motel and Grooming for a couple of nights until her owners returned.

She is a great doggie that has never caused any major trouble, not even when other doggos are around. Therefore, it was even more surprising to find her out of her kennel.

However, it didn’t take long for the staff to understand what was actually going on, especially when they saw Maggie on the surveillance camera lying in front of a particular kennel.

Inside, there were two nine-week-old pups that were weaned from their mother not long ago, and they spent most of their time crying.

Considering that Maggie had a litter just a little bit before she was adopted (also weaned from her), it was completely understandable that she had the urge to find the little ones and comfort them.

As Sandi Aldred, the owner of the boarding kennel, described to the CBC, she finished work earlier and went for dinner at a local restaurant when she took her phone out to check the situation in the kennel.

And, there was quite a sight to see: Maggie was sitting way far away from her kennel, in front of the pen with puppies.

“Sneaky” Maggie Found A Way To The Puppies

Aldred was interested in the way Maggie got out, so she rewound the footage from that night up to the point when she was finding her way out of her kennel.

This smart and sneaky doggo got through the opening for a built-in water dish and immediately went up to the kennel where the puppies were placed, as Aldred told CBC:

“We watched her on the cameras, and she went straight around and found their room. She paid them a lot of attention, and you could see her little tail wagging. And, she’d do the little bow down to them and poke them through the chainlink gate of their room.”

Aldred realized that there was nothing they could do but let her into the puppies’ kennel so she could comfort them.
“She just decided that was where she was going to stay until we came to get her:”

A Match Made In Heaven…

Aldred went straight back after dinner to check up on Maggie. What she didn’t expect but came upon was Maggie standing right at the door, just waiting for someone to let her in to the pups.

As Aldred told the CBC, Maggie was so excited, and she led her straight to the puppies’ kennel door, knowing that Aldred would eventually let her in.

As soon as Maggie entered the kennel, it was more than obvious that these three pooches were meant to be.

“The puppies needed her and she needed them. It was pretty perfect.”

The happy trio stayed together throughout the night, and were still cuddling in the morning. But, unfortunately, their fairytale soon came to an end.

… But It Can’t Last Forever

The night with the pups was actually Maggie’s last night in the boarding center, as her owners came to pick her up the next day.

They were delighted to hear about the sweet bond between the pooches, but they couldn’t hold her there anymore, as they wanted to spend some quality time with their new pet, too.

Still, Aldred couldn’t let Maggie’s parents go before showing them how great she was with the little pooches.

Maggie’s owners weren’t so surprised by her mother’s instincts. They told Aldred that after her litter was taken from her, she started caring for another litter in the shelter before they adopted her.

Therefore, they’re already well-aware of the fact that they indeed own one special pooch.

When it comes to the puppies, there’s nothing to worry about. Maggie left them in the good hands of the boarding staff who also fell in love with the pups, and they hope that those two cuties will find forever homes soon enough as well.
