Well at least they are puppies. That's in their favor. Whatever shelter or
rescue org. you choose will probably have pretty good luck homing them.

Yes, they are a good age, and beautifully marked. They will be gorgeous
when grown.
I've called the shelters in the area, and they are full. We are on the
waiting list for one. The person on the phone said she would talk to her
boss.
I've only called no-kill places.
I also put an ad in the paper.
We'll see.

We are sending purrs that those sweet puppies will find a loving home.
Also purring that whoever dumped them will suffer long from a guilty
conscience. Best wishes. MLB


Thank you. I'd like to have a word or more with those low life puppy
dumpers.

.... I've always wanted a dog, but my tastes run to the really
large ones, I have never had a proper sized yard, and I don't think it's
fair to the animal to keep it indoors in an apartment, except for the
daily walks. ... we're talking
Great Danes and/or Rotweillers, here.


Hi Evelyn,
I believe that the adults of some of the larger breeds will do well in an
apartment with daily walks, but the puppies of those breeds will likely eat
a couch or two before reaching that stage of maturity. You might look into
a Great Dane or Rotweiller breed rescue group and ask about an older,
settled dog. You might be surprised.

No suggestions here, but purrs and prayers that you will be able to
place these 2 sweet things. If people are going to get rid of animals,
why not bring them to a shelter or something instead of just dumping
them? It makes me so mad.
Jazz & his mama

I'm finding out that it's not that easy to get them into a shelter. But
they could do what I'll probably have to do. They could make signs and take
them around to vet clinics and other places and put an ad in the paper and
interview prospective adopters and worry about making the right decision.
What really bothers me, is if they don't want the puppies (or kittens), why
don't they have the mother dog or cat spayed?
This whole thing makes me furious. The emotional price we pay is as much as
the financial price to fix a problem we did not create and did not ask for.

Greyhounds are perfect for this. Big couch potatos that only need walkies.

snip Now I will call the rescue organizations to try to find a slot for
these
little darlings.
Anyone know anyone, especially in Texas, who would like one or more
no-longer-wormy, well behaved, beautiful puppies?
If so, Cinder, Rosie, Jim and I would be most grateful if you would let us
know.
Thanks,
Annie, and above mentioned parties.
