Raina was a stray dog who had recently given birth to a litter of 11 puppies. But when the heavy rains came, she dug a hole to protect her babies. The whimpering and crying of the puppies caught the attention of some neighbors.

The Michigan Humane Society (MHS) was called for help. They performed a perilous rescue, as they jumped into the muddy hole, and rescued the scared, shivering and mud-covered puppies one by one.
The rescue operation garnered a lot of attention, and a lot of families filled in applications for adoptions. Finally, the shelter chose the adoptive parents, and called them in to accept their puppies by lottery.

This thrilling video captures the day of adoptions. Families anxiously wait for their puppies without any idea of who they will end up with, but they all have a specific puppy in mind. Their preferences include black dog, “chill” dog, and friendly dog among others!

With bated breaths, the families receive a card each, with a number that determines the order in which they get to pick the puppy.
You are in for a roller-coaster of emotions in this one, as you witness the joy and excitement of each family! Spoilers: Everyone goes home with a new best friend!
