Two of Cora's puppies play at the Marin Humane Society.

There wasn't a dry eye in the house when the Marin Humane Society reunited a rescue dog with her missing puppies — and we won't blame you for crying either.

The story began when a skittish female dog named Cora was surrendered by its owner to the Humane Society on Saturday. When Cora was taken in for a routine check-up, vets found that she had recently had puppies.

When contacted again, the former owner was evasive and unwilling to admit there were puppies. But after some convincing, they agreed to let the Humane Society take the puppies, who are too young to be parted from their

On Monday, the happy reunion between mother and babies was captured on camera. Cora appears pressed against the wall, cowering in fear. When she hears the sound of her puppies whining, she comes closer to investigate. Her entire body language changes as she greets her lost puppies and she can't stop wagging her tail.

The cutest part? Cora keeps running back to the dog carrier to make sure no puppies are missing. All present and accounted for, pup!

times. It's wonderful to see the pictures of the happy pups and their adorable mama. They will be adopted quickly, I'm sure. Good work on the part of the employees at Marin Humane who persuaded the people who had the puppies to surrender them, otherwise they would probably have been adopted out too young and might have developed social/behavioral problems.

I love how the pups keep going back in the crate and the helper keeps pulling them out. Looks like more than four that way!
