Murphy had found Marley lying on the road with injuries from getting hit by a car. This brave dog didnโ€™t want to leave her alone, so he stood by her side even as cars raced by. Murphy wanted someone to see him so he could find help for this poor dog-in-need.

Murphy wouldnโ€™t leave Marleyโ€™s side, and his courage was met withโ€ฆ

Luckily, one compassionate human saw Murphy and immediately parked and called for help. Dream Fethcers: Project Rescue was the team that answered the call as fast as they could.

But even with their timely arrival, the rescuers knew that Marley was a long way from safety. Faith Easdale, one of the rescuers, had this to say about Marleyโ€™s condition:

โ€œMarley was in terrible distress and pain and breathing heavily. We werenโ€™t even sure if she was going to make it.โ€

Murphy stayed close and promised that she would not be alone

Faith and her team had to try. So they carefully lifted Marley into their rescue vehicle. Before they could drive off, Murphy hopped in the back of the car and rested his head on Marleyโ€™s stomach. The scene was straight out of a movie and warmed hearts around the world.

The rescue team discovered that the problem was a lot bigger than they thoughtโ€ฆ

Once the team arrived, Marley was brought in for an x-ray to determine her injuries. Thatโ€™s when the team discovered that she was pregnant with 11 puppies! So now the lives of 12 dogs were on the line. But the I.C.A.R.E. Dog Rescue team were far more than up for the task.

The team posted the following on their Facebook page:

โ€œMarley was found on the side of the road where she was left broken after being hit by a car. Thankfully, she was rescued by a wonderful team of people and got the help she needed. She went through 2 surgeries to repair her rear leg and was about to have her shattered front leg repaired when they found out she was expecting! Due to her pregnancy, they had to put treatment for her front leg on hold and sheโ€™s now in a cast.โ€œ

The team worked diligently through the sensitive operation. Murphy backed off as they worked, perhaps sensing that Marley was now in good safe hands. He trusted the team to save the poor mother and his trust was well rewarded.
