LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Eight puppies were rescued after being found in a trash bag in a dumpster.
A person heard their cries, and the puppies are now safe at the shelter with their mother and two other dogs.
The puppies were only two weeks old when they were dumped, making them highly susceptible to disease and death.
