Essential Bonding

The tiny animals being attended too benefit greatly by being handled gently by kind human hands. Before being taken into the garden by our volunteers, the two little ones were lying quietly in their small enclosures, probably missing their mothers terribly.
Carried into the garden, they are given a good brushing, administered a lot of TLC and also get some much needed sun and fresh air. This little outing does them a world of good. The small pup in the first picture is being vigorously dried and combed after a much-needed bath. The little one in the second picture is terribly injured and just loves being picked up for his little adventure in the garden with a loving companion. He won't last long, but while he's with us, we will take care to see that he has some fun times in his little life.
Our volunteers need some guidance, that's all. This visit and bonding with the young is extremely good for all concerned.
