A box of malnourished puppies found in a skip are well on their way to full health, according to an animal sanctuary.
They were taken in by the Forest of Dean Dog Rescue in Gloucestershire and have been recovering for the past two weeks.
Staff said they were unable to identify the puppies' breed, as they were dehydrated and malnourished, weighing in at 1kg (2.2lbs) each.
After receiving treatment at a nearby clinic, the puppies were said to be on the mend will be ready to be rehomed in the next few weeks.Jen Cole, secretrary of Forest of Dean Dog and Rescue, said the puppies were "doing remarkably well."
"They're not out of the woods yet, they've still got a long way to go," she added.
"Rescues are really struggling and this is happening day in, day out," said Ms Coles.
She had urged people to consider if they had the time and finances to look after an animal before adopting.
Two weeks ago, the animal shelter received a phone call from a man who turned up at work and found a box of puppies discarded in a skip.
They were taken to Drybridge Veterinary Clinic in Coleford for treatment.
"They worked tirelessly to work on them that day," said Ms Cole.
Two of the puppies had to be kept on drips and almost did not survive.
"They were really in a shocking way and I think if it had been a few more hours, I think we'd have lost at least two of them."
