For those who have been following our most recent “puppy drama”, I’m happy to announce that Mama Dog’s puppies are no longer at our house!
You may remember from my last update that my daughter had found a home for one of the little girls, leaving seven still in need. Our name was on the waiting list at the local animal shelter, but I wasn’t depending on that as a solution. Several people, including one of the employees at our vet’s office, suggested we place their pictures in the classifieds section of a website for our region. I decided it was worth a try. Would you believe within 48 hours I had already given away three of them?! Then, we were pleasantly surprised to get a call from the animal shelter saying we could bring in the remaining puppies the next day. That same evening I got another response to my ad and was able to give away a fourth. That left only three to go to the shelter. I did receive one last call after the puppies were gone, but the caller indicated they might go to the shelter once I explained where the puppies had been moved.
The last three were so scared when we dropped them off. I hope they get adopted soon and that all eight will have good, happy lives in their new homes!

I'm really happy about this happy ending, Kelly. You were great to take these dogs in and find a way for them.

Somehow I just knew those precious pups would find a home. I'm so happy they will be loved and welcomed into families!
yay pups!!!
Hope Jed is doing well!
That's awesome, Kelly! I wonder if that would work for cats. Cody sniffed in Ray's closet and found that Baby, the cat he drug in a year ago, had deposited FOUR yellow-striped kittens there! OY! Just what we needed, more cats. I'm going to try to find homes for all that I have except for two that we're keeping and getting spayed. Sigh.
PS: I forgot to thank you for that great article on Charlaine Harris you sent me. I really enjoyed it!!!! I appreciate you!!
Don't you think it's just a matter of time before another mama dog shows up to have her litter????
