Someone's going to have to save us from all this cuteness – we're swooning! Hera, a 4-year-old Saint Bernard, welcomed nine adorable puppies at Switzerland's Barry Foundation in Martigny on Aug. 26. According to Swisster.com, the foundation is the original kennel for the country's national dog, a breed renowned for it's search and rescue abilities. These pups will likely be trained as therapy dogs who will bring cheer to children and the elderly at hospices in the region. For now, Hera has her paws full!
