Pregnant Pit Bull Saved Just 47 Minutes Before Euthanasia Now Living Her Best Life
Stormi was minutes away from losing her life. She was heavily pregnant, scared, and running out of time.
The shelter had given her until 2 p.m.—and the clock was ticking.
A Race Against Time
Lisa Chiarelli from Frankie, Lola and Friends in California, and her friend Karla, couldn’t stop thinking about Stormi.
When they learned she had a deadline to be rescued, they knew they had to act fast.

Despite the discomfort of carrying a full litter, she climbed into their car, her eyes full of relief. She was safe—and she knew it.
Karla welcomed Stormi into her home, giving her a quiet space to rest and get comfortable.
Though Stormi had a gentle spirit from the start, Karla kept her separate from the other dogs at first, giving her time to settle in.

Her foster siblings would stop by for a sniff, but mostly left her alone while she adjusted.
It didn’t take long, though—Stormi was calm, kind, and happy to have company.
Momma At Last
Then came the big day—Stormi gave birth to eight beautiful puppies!
Karla and Lisa were amazed. It was more than they expected, but Stormi handled everything like a pro.

She stayed in the puppy room, caring for her babies nonstop. She was nurturing, gentle, and protective—clearly meant to be a mom.
As the pups grew stronger, Stormi slowly came out of her shell even more. When the time came to rejoin the rest of the dogs, she was like a puppy herself—playful, joyful, and full of love.

Her favorite buddy was Anna, a sweet blind Pittie. The two shared a special bond, and Stormi couldn’t stop wagging her tail around her furry friends.
A Family Of Her Own
Weeks passed, and Stormi’s world changed again—this time, for the best.
A kind family with two children reached out. They’d seen Stormi’s story and wanted to meet her.
