What kind of mother are you???
I guess you all know about our new addition to the family.... Yes we are the proud grandparents of 11, no 9, well I guess 8 lab puppies... The mother is our "new dog" that just came up here and started eating... We love dogs, we couldn't say no... She seemed to be a really sweet dog... Very skiddish, but sweet to Dawson... So anyway, she's pregnant and has 11 puppies... Two she didn't even eat the sack off of and we weren't there to cut it off (we had to for her on two other ones).
So all of the puppies are born and well!! Life is great........ Until last night...... We have a nice dog house and made sure that the puppies were warm and comfortable... We kept hearing these poor little puppies chirping underneath the house in the middle of the night... So this morning David got up and went under there and started rounding them up... It was pitiful... There were 2 puppies starving.... We brought them inside and I fixed them some milk and fed them all with a medicine dropper.. So now they are in the house and we are only taking them to the mama to eat... What do I do??? They are only about a week and a half old and they can't survive without their mama yet.... I don't have the time to feed each and every puppy every hour... So, anyone that wants a puppy, please call me.... They need a good home!!!
Look at that sweet little (blurry) puppy!! She is saying "please take me home for Christmas"!! We have 5 females and 3 males..
