Irvine, California – A seasoned dog rescuer was shocked by the horrible situation she found these poor pooches in – someone had literally thrown them out with the trash!

Tuesday, Suzette Hall posted a slew of photos and videos on Facebook documenting her latest and incredibly shocking rescue.

Hall saved three small dogs that were hiding beneath a trash container.

"Just absolutely unreal," she wrote of the situation on Facebook.

"I’ve said before that dogs are 'thrown away like trash,' but this time… they were literally thrown away."

The three dogs had taken shelter under dumpsters. Hall said the poor things were "buried in trash, filth, and foul-smelling liquid. I can't even begin to describe the smell."

To make matters worse, the temperatures were unbearably hot that day. She described the dogs as "hot, terrified, hungry, thirsty."

Getting to the animals was a real chore for Hall and, understandably, the dogs were terrified.

To get to the poor dogs, Hall had to pull herself through the muck.

"To get to them, I had to crawl through the trash and underneath those dumpsters. It was heartbreaking. Every time we got close, they would run right back underneath because they were so scared."

Hall realized she couldn't manage without help. Luckily, a "kind man" came to her aid. He helped Hall push the containers aside.

"It took time. It took patience. It took blood, sweat, and tears. But little by little, we were able to guide them into a small open area where we could safely get slip leads around their necks. They were still shaking with fear, but they were finally within reach," Hall explained, relieved.

After the excitement, the animal rescuer was exhausted and reeling from the ordeal.

"I honestly don't have the words. I still smell like the trash I crawled through, but I couldn't care less. Every second of it was worth it," she wrote.

The dogs found in the trash are doing a bit better after a check-in with the vet. While a truly happy ending is still pending, one thing is clear to their rescuer: "They will never be trash again."
