I am dog sitting this weekend and when I brought "Brady" to my house I thought I would give him a few minutes to adjust to the house and the yard. He (a beagle mix) was investigating my fenced in area while I was wandering around seeing the new spring flowers etc. I noticed he had been very quiet in one area for awhile so I went to find him and he had dug a hole (in my front yard)! As I went to fill it in I saw 3 little bodies crawling on the grass! Brady had dug up a rabbit den and the poor babies were uncovered. I called a wildlife rehab hospital and brought them in as instructed, only to be told by the vet to bring them back home and re-bury them! She said their best chance of survival is with Mom and that Mom will probably return at night. I brought them home and put them back in the ground and covered them with a little dirt, grass & leaves and their Mom's nesting fur. I hope they survive. We are having unseasonably cold temps this weekend (below zero) so I am worried about them. Here is a photo that I took just before I covered them up (I also put a pen around the area to keep Brady out!)
