Her Husky Came Back From The Woods Only To Do Something Strange
The most exciting aspect of having a pet is coming up with new ways to communicate with them. They figure out a way to show you what they want. Another unique feature of animals is finding a way to ask for help or let you know when something is bothering them. This woman was caught off guard when she and her husky went for their daily walk in the woods, and her dog did something unusual to get her attention. Let’s find out what happened to her dog and what prompted her to behave in such a strange manner!
Braley’s Canine Sidekick
Braley was overjoyed at the prospect of having her own canine companion. She took her time and did her homework before deciding on the ideal breed for her. Braley chose a husky, which is as beautiful and witty as another member of the canine family, the wolf.
Braley’s Canine Sidekick
Braley required a canine companion who was both intelligent and energetic. She desired a dog who would keep up with all of the important tricks she planned to teach him. This new husky would not only be a fun companion, but it would also play an important role in her life.
Braley’s Little Banner
Whitney Braley was finally able to bring a dog home. But not just any dog, but a tiny husky puppy! She gave her new little sidekick the name “Banner” and foresaw a bright future for her. They were inseparable from the moment she brought Banner home!
Braley’s Little Banner
She knew Banner recognized her as her trusted alpha after such an instant and strong connection. Whitney was certain she’d found the ideal pet; she needed a smart dog like Banner for a specific reason.
Teaching a New Dog Important Tricks
Whitney Braley had always had a soft spot for animals. ‘Banner’ was adopted to assist her with her disability due to a health issue. It was clear from the moment they met that they had a special, one-of-a-kind connection. Whitney and expert trainers prepared her for all of the new “tricks,” and she quickly learned and enjoyed them.
Teaching A New Dog Important Tricks
Anxiety attacks, PTSD episodes, migraines, and other medical issues were all recognized by Banner. This had a big impact on Whitney and helped her deal with her problems in a safe way. Banner developed the ability to sense when something was wrong over time, and he was usually correct. Whitney’s life was forever changed as a result of this.
Banner to the Rescue!
To help Whitney in managing her health, Banner had learned to recognize signs of impending episodes. Banner, on the other hand, had an instinct to go the extra mile. Despite her focus on her owner, she developed skills to recognize symptoms in others!
Banner To The Rescue!
She was also able to help with medication retrieval and self-harm interruption. This dog was a fascinating creature. Whitney was overjoyed that she could trust Banner and have her by her side now that she had become such an important part of her life.
Whitney to the Rescue!
‘Banner’ was not prejudiced against humans; she adored all animals! Like her new puppy, Whitney was open to all animals and fostered several rescue animals long before Banner arrived.
Whitney To The Rescue!
Whitney was worried that Banner wouldn’t get along with other animals, but she soon discovered that she was always eager to help her! When Whitney was caring for the other animals, she was never envious or interfering. Whitney was relieved because she adored rescuing animals and assisting them.
A Kitten Needs a Mother
Whitney’s love for animals was a big part of her life even before she adopted her beloved dog, and she had a habit of saving rescue animals and other pets in need. Banner eagerly agreed to join Braley’s mission and was gentle with the animals they were caring for. Banner decided to foster her first baby kitten during her first year with Whitney.
A Kitten Needs A Mother
She was well aware that it would be difficult work, but the poor, sweet kitten had been discovered in a ditch. She couldn’t possibly say no. It wouldn’t stand a chance without a mother cat to protect and feed it. But don’t worry, Banner has stepped in as the kitten’s new mother! Isn’t it just as amazing as it is adorable? It only gets better from here.
A Real Rescue Team
With many of the animal rescues, Banner took on a maternal role. Whitney realized how important it was to have another creature nearby to protect and calm these distressed animals when they were in distress. ‘Banner’ was always gentle with the other animals, but they were equally helpful to her.
A Real Rescue Team
They also helped Banner in developing a good foundation of behavior and education. Each animal that came into Whitney’s home would benefit the other in some way. Thankfully, Whitney’s new partner in crime helped her quickly rehabilitate these animals, allowing them to be adopted into new homes. Together, they had become a real rescue team.
Long Walks in the Forest
The rescue team, on the other hand, never lost sight of one another. Banner made it a point to look after Whitney and the other way around. Banner had a lot of energy and needed a lot of exercise as a pure-bred husky. Whitney would happily take Banner for long walks in the nearby forest to expend her energy.
Long Walks In The Forest
‘Banner’ was able to explore and enjoy the outdoors while he was there. Whitney never jeopardized Banner’s exercise time. She would gladly take her on their daily walk, even if she were having a bad day. Banner’s ability to detect Whitney’s health symptoms might be compromised if she wasn’t at her best.
Roaming Freely in the Forest
It was once again that time of day – Banner’s daily forest walk! ‘Banner’ was also free to roam without a leash during their forest walks, which was a huge plus. She was confident in Banner’s ability to return to her when it was time to return home.
Roaming Freely In The Forest
Whitney didn’t feel the need to keep her on a leash because their bond was so strong. And, leash or no leash, Banner knew his primary goal was to ensure his master’s health, and he would return when and if she was needed.
Freedom in Nature
Whitney had a regular walk near the forest that she took every day. When they arrived in the forest, she let Banner run around freely in and out of it. This was, without a doubt, Banner’s favorite part of the entire walk.
Freedom In Nature
Who doesn’t enjoy the taste of natural freedom? This was an excellent opportunity for them to reconnect with their inner selves and enjoy the woods in their own unique ways.
This Doesn’t Seem Like Banner
‘Banner’ would diligently follow Whitney’s side during their walks as soon as she returned from playing in the forest. Whitney didn’t worry if she couldn’t see Banner because she knew he’d come back.
This Doesn’t Seem Like Banner
She didn’t seem like herself on this particular day, however, when Banner returned. ‘Banner’ was rarely fazed by anything in the forest, and he always returned in a cheerful mood. So, what had happened to Banner? Why was she behaving in such a strange way?
“Bad Dog”
‘Banner’ was always respectful of Whitney as an owner and was always obedient to her. When Banner didn’t follow Whitney’s commands, she was puzzled. ‘Banner’ was clearly distressed and perplexed as well. Whitney, on the other hand, couldn’t figure out what had gotten into her.
“Bad Dog”
She tried to command her to behave and return home in a stern voice. Banner, on the other hand, seemed adamant about staying. ‘Banner’ was, dare we say, acting like a “bad dog” to Whitney, which was completely out of character for her! But what was Whitney to do?
Is Banner Just Fussy Like a Child?
Animals can exhibit behaviors that are similar to those of children. When they’re having a good time and don’t want to leave, they’ll sometimes fall to the ground and refuse to move. They don’t care if you’re in the middle of a grocery store, a mall, or a friend’s house. The same is true for dogs.
Is Banner Just Fussy Like A Child?
But Banner wasn’t fussy about having a good time; Whitney could tell something was bothering her. Banner didn’t just sit there and do nothing; at one point, she even began tugging on Whitney’s dress! Perhaps Banner was trying to warn Whitney of an impending symptom, Whitney reasoned.
Seriously, What Could it Be, Banner?
Whitney began to worry that Banner’s behavior was a reflection of her current health condition. Pulling at her dress was one thing, but plopping down was another. That was a lot more persistent than usual. Whitney double-checked her vital signs, but they were all normal.
Seriously, What Could It Be, Banner?
She tried to regain control of the situation. Banner’s behavior was never so unpredictably unpredictable; there was always a reason for her outbursts. She tried not to get frustrated and remained calm, but what could it be?
The Struggle of Communicating with Your Pet
One of the fascinating aspects of pets is that we can communicate with them even if we don’t speak the same language. ‘Banner’ was undoubtedly attempting to communicate, but Whitney was having trouble understanding him. After a while, Banner began pulling Whitney back in the direction she had just come from; she realized she wanted to return to the woods.
The Struggle Of Communicating With Your Pet
Something serious was going on inside the forest, Whitney realized. Whitney decided to take the detour to see what all the fuss was about because it was a chilly but dry day. ‘Banner’ appeared to be calmer as they traveled deeper into the woods.
Doubt vs. Trust
Whitney’s mind was racing with ideas as they trudged deeper into the woods. Was Banner looking for a game to play? Is there anything significant he discovered? Were they unharmed? ‘Banner’ was known to be a protective and caring person, but she began to have doubts.
Doubt Vs. Trust
Whitney looked around but didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary. There was nothing unusual about their surroundings; only trees and chirping birds could be heard. She continued on her way through the woods regardless. She knew Banner was a smart dog, so she used her trusted, cherished companion to help her overcome her worries.
Finding a Household Object in the Middle of Nowhere
She finally noticed something in the distance as she looked around the forest. The surroundings obscured the color of this object, but it was unmistakably not of nature. She could tell the object was a box when she examined it more closely.
Finding A Household Object In The Middle Of Nowhere
Whitney wasn’t sure what to make of Banner’s dash towards it. Banner, who was now pawing at the box, was finally caught up to her. Was Banner merely attempting to amuse himself? Was it just the discovery of a household item in the middle of nowhere that piqued her interest? Is there anything inside the box?
Was This Just a Waste of Time?
They were right there. Whitney and Banner Banner clearly wanted her to open a cardboard box, but she was hesitant. The box didn’t make any noises, and it wasn’t moving.
Was This Just A Waste Of Time?
Was all of this a waste of time? Was there food in the box that Banner could smell from a long-distance? Whitney was about to discover the truth! She slowly opened the box, stunned by what Banner had discovered.
Whitney, Banner, and a Cardboard of What!?
Whitney was overcome with emotion as she finally realized why Banner’s behavior was so strange. Whitney had seen clumps of black and white fur at first glance and assumed she had just opened the box to a skunk. But as she got closer, she realized it was a completely different animal.
Whitney, Banner, And A Cardboard Of What!?
In fact, there were several. They were right there. Whitney, Banner, and a cardboard box stuffed with suffocating kittens! The two had previously worked together as a rescue team for fostering animals, but this act of kindness catapulted Banner to the next level!
Whitney’s Heart Was Broken
The phrase “Curiosity Killed the Cat” comes from the fact that cats are always curious and active. This litter of kittens, on the other hand, was the polar opposite. Whitney opening the box elicited no response from them. Sadly, even though it didn’t rain that day, the kittens were clearly frozen.
Whitney’s Heart Was Broken
Whitney’s heart had been shattered. She was, in fact, more than just heartbroken. As an animal rescuer herself, she was enraged and appalled that someone would abandon a box of kittens in the middle of nowhere. Was it really that difficult to get them to a shelter? Was she the only one who could save them?
A Box Full of Tragic Hope
The kittens appeared to be no more than a day old. They were alone and vulnerable, with no mother in sight. Banner put on her rescue hat and dove right in while Whitney was trying to process the tragedy.
A Box Full Of Tragic Hope
She gently pulled one kitten out of the nest with her mouth and cuddled it. With all of the rescue animals the two of them had taken care of together, Banner had plenty of experience. ‘Banner’ was clear in his determination to do the same for the box of these tiny babies.
No Words Can Describe It
There were no words to describe the situation. She was astounded that Banner had not only discovered the box of critical-state kittens in the middle of nowhere but that she was also determined to save them. She was a wonderful creature with a lot of compassion.
No Words Can Describe It
However, in all of her years as an animal foster parent, this was by far the most heartbreaking thing she had ever seen. She could tell the kittens were still young and had a chance, indicating that the drop-off was recent. Whitney was concerned because she knew the kittens didn’t have much time left, and none of them were responding.
Save the Kittens!

Banner Had Been Training for This Day All Along
A box full of kittens was delivered to their home by the rescue team. Whitney rushed to get heating blankets and anything else she could think of to warm up the babies and get them back to a normal state. Banner stood motionless by, keeping an eye on them and, of course, Whitney.
Banner Had Been Training For This Day All Along
To think Whitney mistook her dependable dog for a misbehaving dog. Who would have guessed that Banner had been preparing for this day since her first year with Whitney? Banner didn’t just save one or two kittens… he saved a total of seven kittens in one day!
A Whirlwind of a Welcome
These kittens were welcomed into the world in a whirlwind. Thankfully, Whitney and Banner were both more than capable of calming the situation down. Whitney was able to quickly locate the litter of seven adult female cats and feed them. This sweet cat had just given birth to a litter of her own, so she was ideal for the job!
A Whirlwind Of A Welcome
But the cats’ good fortune didn’t end there; Banner played an important role as well. This adorable puppy treated the kittens like family, cleaning, cuddling, and napping with them. She provided them with a secure and enjoyable environment in which to grow.
Dear Mama Dog

Dear Mama Dog
Whitney, who was the ideal fosterer for this task, had intended to care for the kittens for the next few months. The kittens grew closer to their beloved mama dog with each passing day. It was the cutest and most unusual little fur family I’d ever seen. Whoever said cats and dogs don’t get along was completely wrong.
Banner’s Story
The kittens were maturing into strong and healthy adults. Whitney took advantage of the opportunity to tell their story on social media. She was ecstatic about her selfless dog and wanted to spread the word about animal abandonment. If a husky can sense something is wrong with a suspicious box of kittens in the woods, then perhaps others will wake up and realize what is wrong as well.
Banner’s Story
There are many other ways to deal with a situation like this, but Whitney was determined to speak up and educate. Banner’s story went viral, and people were eager to learn more about the brave dog and his litter of seven puppies. Who could say no to a box of kittens?

Saying Bye to the Kitties
Whitney and Banner knew there would come a time when they would have to say their goodbyes to the kittens. The internet would be her key to locating the best possible environment for these kittens to mature into cats. The kittens were up-to-date on all their shots and deemed healthy a few months after their rescue.

The Best Team Around
Whitney and Banner continued to rescue and foster animals in addition to touring to raise awareness.

Surprisingly, after the entire ordeal, Whitney discovered that Banner has a stronger bond with kittens than any other animal. She enjoyed assisting Whitney with the care of all animals, but kittens were always her favorite.
Safety First
Having said that, as adorable as animals can be, it’s always best to consult a professional. When rescuing an animal, there are numerous factors to consider. Wild animals are unpredictable, especially because they are unfamiliar with humans and their surroundings.
Safety First
Even with a domesticated animal like a cat or dog, keep in mind that they may be more afraid of you than you are of them and may act aggressively as a result. Whitney and Banner had been rescuing and fostering animals for a long time, and they were fortunate that the situation was not life-threatening. We strongly encourage you to report anything suspicious or dangerous to the appropriate authorities and professionals.
Endless Compassion and Cuddles

Banner is a true miracle dog who has saved countless animals thanks to her sharp mind, emotional intelligence, and compassionate heart.
