Here’s a detailed version of Cheesecake’s heartwarming journey:
Cheesecake, a sweet stray dog, was wandering around the streets of Oklahoma when she caught the attention of A Friend of Jack, a dedicated rescue organization. They took her in, offering her a chance at a better life.
New Life
Iliana Broad, living in Denver, heard about Cheesecake and felt an immediate connection. She decided to foster the adorable pup, eager to give her a loving home. Cheesecake’s journey from Oklahoma to Denver was the start of a new chapter, and she seemed ready for the change.
“During the initial phase, our focus was on helping Cheesecake settle in, ensuring she was eating well, gaining weight, and getting plenty of rest,” Iliana explained.
Big Secret
As Cheesecake began to adjust to her new environment, Iliana noticed some signs that suggested her foster pup might be pregnant. Confused by this, she contacted A Friend of Jack to confirm if there was any prior knowledge of Cheesecake’s pregnancy. They had no indication that she was expecting, but Iliana decided to take her to the vet for a scan.
The initial vet visit didn’t reveal any signs of pregnancy, so Iliana took Cheesecake home, though she remained skeptical. Over time, Cheesecake’s belly grew, and Iliana’s intuition told her that something was amiss.
Taking Cheesecake to the vet once more, new scans confirmed that not only was Cheesecake pregnant, but she was also only days away from giving birth. The imaging showed a surprising number of puppies—between nine and ten—leaving everyone astonished and amused by the x-ray results.
New Mom
A week later, Cheesecake gave birth to nine beautiful and healthy puppies. In keeping with the theme, Iliana and her partner named the puppies after flavors of cheesecake: Mocha, Oreo, Pumpkin, Strawberry, Blueberry, Cocoa, Fudge, Vanilla Bean, and Turtle.
However, shortly after delivering her puppies, Cheesecake fell gravely ill and was unable to nurse her newborns. Iliana and her partner stepped in, bottle-feeding each puppy around the clock. Despite the demanding work, they were dedicated to ensuring the puppies thrived.
Final Word
After all they had been through together, Iliana and her partner decided to adopt Cheesecake officially. Cheesecake, now in a loving home, could finally enjoy a life of comfort and care.
As for the puppies, each one found a forever home where they would grow up cherished and loved. Cheesecake’s story is a testament to the profound impact of compassion and dedication. She now lives a joyful life, free from the hardships of her past, surrounded by love and warmth.
Cheesecake’s journey from a stray to a cherished family member highlights the incredible transformations that can occur when kindness and care come together.
