Little puppies appeared one day and started living inside the drain
Local: There were three of them
Town head: There were 2 black dogs and one yellow one There were 3 until yesterday...
Town head: There was another black one
Up until yesterday, there was another black puppy
and it went missing...
Grandma is drying radish on the rack
Gumdoong (black dog) and Nurung (yellow dog) smelt the radish already and looks for a chance
Once grandma left the scene...
they stealthily walk towards it
and starts demolishing the radish
Nurung who hesitated a bit also joins Gumdoong
Grandma: You rascal, leave. Go away!
Scared of the angry grandma, they runs away
Grandma: They always make a mess here, every day!
PD: There they are! Grandma: What the, will you stop coming here and making a mess?
Grandma: You little rascals! No radish here anymore. I'll get rid of it
Grandma: They took shoes, too PD: They took your shoes
Grandma: Yes, they took your gloves and walk on the field, making a mess
While hiding inside the drain, once there is no one outside...
they come out and have a go at the garbage bags for starters
Nurung and Gumdoong team up and make a mess everywhere
and once they sense human presence, they'd hide again
Town head: They ripped off the garbage bag. This is no good, they will all blow away
This happened in a blink
It's always on the town head to clean it up
PD: I heard that you can't get anything done, because of them Town head: Yeah, we're not prepared for winter, yet
PD: Because of them? /Yes
For the peace in town and for the safety of the puppies. town head decided to take an action
PD: Town head, what are you up to?
Town head: I'm going to try the way I used to catch sparrows. I'm going to lure the puppies with food
The town head is building a sparrow trap that he used to use before
and Gumdoong is watching all this
Town head: And now, put snacks in..
Though Gumdoong watched him setting a trap...
Gumdoong still walks into the trap..
and soon sticks his head in and eats the bait
Town head: A little bit more..!
Tension is real...
Town head: Got ya! GOT YA!
Gumdoong ran away
Town head: Darn it! So close! I thought I got them but they are really fast. Shall we try again?
Town head is rebuilding a trap for Gumdoong and Gumdoong is seeking for a chance to eat the snack
Soon, Gumdoong showed up near the trap again.
(Come in..)
At least he hesitated before, this time, he just walked in confidently and started chomping down the snacks
the town head pulled the string
but Gumdoong started running, with the basket over his head
Town head: I got him! PD: Did we get him?
Town head: Ah.. it was so close!
Town head: He dragged it with him to here. It's not easy. I didn't expect that he'd drag it, I guess the basket is too small
Gumdoong and Nurung hid even deeper
The next day
Town head called us
Town head: I couldn't find it anywhere and I found him dead here
Where the town head led us, there is a body of the one that went missing
Town: How pitiful. I couldn't find him anywhere
The other black puppy that went missing was found killed
Townhead: Aigo, I should bury him. PD: There's blood on his belly, he's got bitten. There is a bite wound/ yeah I see
Only if we found him a little sooner...
The neighbors are all sad, hearing the sad news
Little girl He-Na has been taking care of htem so she must be feeling the most devastated
Town head decided to bury him in his backyard
Town head: Rest in peace, now. Next life, born in a good place as a human.
So that this tragedy doesn't happen to the rest of the puppies, we decided to rush the rescue
Team leader, Korean Animal Welfare Association: Now they can live like this, but, they are growing fast
then one day, then went in as usual and can get stuck inside the drain..
We get on with the preparation for the rescue!
We set out the capture frame on the street where they are often spotted
and blocked all the way outs from the drain, except one
and sprinkled some snacks to lure them in
Soon
Gumdoong and Nurung came out at the smell of delicious snack
Town head: Both of them are out!
The two started eating snacks around the trap
At that time!
Gumdoong walked into the trap first!
and Nurung walked into it, after Gumdoong
Town head: That's it, that's it. They went in!
Town head: Ah! GOT THEM! That was easy!
Two puppies are pretty startled! We waited until they calmed down
The two of them are curled up, and can't even keep their head up
at the first touch of humans
Team leader, Korean Animal Welfare Association: They stay still. It's okay~
Some pups would have bitten me already when I put my hands on them, but they are so calm
Nurung accept human touches easily
Town head: Oh my god, they are so cute!
He-Na: I couldn't sleep, thinking ' when are we going to rescue them. But now, finally, I can sleep
Vet: They are scared of people, but still they are very gentle kids.
Vet: Their fangs are sharper than the incisors. They are a little older than 2 months
They lived in a drain, will their condition be okay?
Vet: It's normal to have a little bit of oil on their body, apart from that, they are healthy
Vet: Though they lived in a drain, there isn't humid and any grass so they were safe from ticks, parasitic infections or mosquitos
Vet: Plus, neighbors were feeding them so I guess overall they could grow up healthy like this
Thanks to the affection and endeavor from the neighbors, the two could be escaped
Town head: Oh, Nurung, you've gone through a lot. I hope they grow up healthily now
