Award-winning actress and singer Nadine Lustre took to Instagram to ask for help to find some rescued puppies their “forever home.”
Nadine, a dog lover, who owns a Welsh Corgi named Cal (or Calcifer) posted an Instagram Story yesterday (September 6) that she’s looking to find loving pet owners to adopt these dogs she found.
According to her, “Came across [five] puppies at our location yesterday. (We couldn’t find the other [two] last night so they’re not in the picture).”
“The crew told us that the owner is planning to toss them in the river if no one would take them because there are ‘too many dogs’ around. At first, I thought it was a sick joke, but the crew said the owner was actually serious.”

With the possibility that these puppies might die, she decided to take them in for a while and asked people if they want to adopt these fur babies.
She added, “The Tanod offered to help me out and gather the puppies for me to pick up on Thursday. I’ll be taking care of them in the meantime while we’re still looking for a new home for them.”
“I just couldn’t stand thinking they might die when I could’ve done something to help.
“We don’t know how old they are, but it seems like they’re able to eat food already. Two puppies are already accounted for. If anyone wants to adopt the other puppies please let me know.”
Last month, Nadine bagged her second trophy at the FAMAS (Filipino Academy of Movie Arts and Sciences) awards night, after winning in the Best Actress category for her performance in “Greed”.
She won her first FAMAS trophy in 2019 for the movie “Never Not Love You.”
