Louisiana - Mama dog dumped on side of road, puppies thrown in river!

Poor Mama Mia. This sweet 34 lbs. 1-year-old female dog was found by a dump in Belle Chase, Louisiana. Two men fishing near her reported that a black pickup truck dumped two garbage bags and Mama dog on the side of the road. The person then dumped her puppies in the river. Mama Mia reportedly spent the next week pacing up and down the riverbank, looking for her puppies. A passing Good Samaritan called to the dog, who then ran and jumped in the woman's car.
Mama Mia is currently being held at a local veterinary office, but they cannot keep her much longer. She will have no other option than the county shelter, which euthanizes for space.
The sweet dog has flea dermatitis and is positive for heart worms. These are things she can recover from. She just wants to cuddle up with anyone that will pet her! She is great with other dogs and just wants to play.
