With their fluffy white paws and big black eyes gazing lovingly into the camera, it’s hard to believe these puppies are struggling to find an owner willing to take care of them.
看着它们毛茸茸的雪白的爪子,还有盯着摄像机的那一双双又大又黑又亮的眼睛,我们很难相信这些可爱的小哈士奇正在渴望着找到一个主人来照顾它们。

The huskies were born in a rescue centre after their pregnant mother had been turned out onto the street.
这些小哈士奇的妈妈在街头被发现时已经怀孕,它们出生在一个救助中心里。

She is one of many ‘wolf breed’ dogs abandoned recently in a spate that has been blamed on cult TV series Game of Thrones.
由于《权力的游戏》等美剧的热播,这些“长得像狼”的狗狗们最近被大量遗弃,怀孕的哈士奇妈妈便是其中的一个。

Fans of the show, which has featured ‘direwolves’ played by Northern Inuit dogs, are thought to have rushed to buy similar breeds because of their beautiful looks – without thinking through the practicalities of owning such large, energetic pets.
该剧的粉丝们,因为剧中由北部因纽特人的狗狗扮演的动物形象,纷纷买来与其长相相似的小狗们,但他们只注意到了狗狗们漂亮的外表,却没有想到养这样一只大型的有活力的狗狗当宠物是否具有可行性。

Named Taboo, Taco, Tacona, Taloola, Tasha and Taz, the six husky puppies are part of a litter of nine – seven girls and two boys. Their mother, Tala, gave birth to them six weeks ago at the Blue Cross centre in Thirsk, North Yorkshire, after being found pregnant, hungry and wandering the streets.
这群小哈士奇一共有9只,7只母的2只公的。图中的6只分别名叫Taboo, Taco, Tacona, Taloola, Tasha和Taz。它们的妈妈Tala六周前在英国北约克郡瑟斯克的蓝十字救助中心生下了这些小哈士奇,Tala之前是在街上被发现的,那时候的她已经怀孕,正饿着肚子在街上流浪。

Tala is thought to have been dumped by her owners when they realised they were about to have a whole pack of huskies to feed and look after.
Tala被遗弃,有可能是因为她的主人意识到将要喂养和照看一群小哈士奇不是一件容易的事。

Staff at the centre are looking for kind-hearted and responsible members of the public to give the puppies the homes they so desperately need.
蓝十字救助中心的工作人员正在为这些急需家庭照顾的小哈士奇们寻找善良、有责任心的人来收养它们。

Blue Cross, which cares for ill and abandoned pets, said the number of huskies and similar breeds taken to its 12 rehoming centres across the UK had increased by 700 per cent over the past five years.
蓝十字救助中心,是一个专门照看生病和被遗弃宠物的慈善组织。据其员工称,整个英国被抛弃的哈士奇以及类似种类的狗狗数量在过去的五年里上涨了7倍。

Animal charity Dogs Trust has a total of 34 Alaskan Malamutes and Siberian Huskies at its 19 rehoming centres.
在动物慈善信托组织的19个救助狗狗重回家园的中心里,目前共有阿拉斯加雪橇狗和哈士奇共计34只。

Lynn Barber, its head of training and behaviour, said yesterday: ‘These dogs are beautiful creatures and can make wonderful companions, but they need owners who understand the demands of this breed and are in a position to offer a lifetime commitment.’
负责训练狗狗行为的琳恩•巴柏说:“这些都是非常漂亮的狗狗,而且它们能成为很棒的小伙伴,但它们需要的是能够理解它们需求、能够对它们一生都负责任的主人。”
