A heartwarming video of a rescued dog placing her 11 puppies into her foster mom’s lap has gone viral.
Stevoni Wells Doyle had welcomed a pit bull named Grayce into her home three weeks ago when the dog was pregnant.
After Grayce gave birth to 11 puppies, she did a remarkable act of trust: she set each one in her foster mom’s lap.

In the two-minute video, you can see the dog placing the last three dogs in Doyle’s lap.
“What am I supposed to do with all these guys? What do you need? Do you need help from me or do you just want to love me?” Doyle is saying in the video, as she rubs Grayce’s head.
“You are so precious. Thank you so much for sharing these babies,” Doyle says.

While unsure exactly why she did this gesture, Doyle told The Dodo, “I think she feels unsure still as a new mom, and she needed love and reassurance from someone she loves and trusts.”
The puppies will be available for adoption in eight weeks from Utah-based group Rescue Rovers.
