As many of you may know, we have a business in our town. A farmer was driving into town today and came across two pups that had been dumped in a ditch out in the country. He caught this little girl but another one had ran away.
She was just a pup and shook all morning. I entertained her in the office.
I posted a few photos on Facebook and instagram trying to find her a home.
I took her for a car ride.
I took her to see my mom.
I let her nap in my jacket.
She liked that the best.
I left her with my husband when I had errands to do. She was comfy there too.
And then her brother showed up. He was bouncing off the walls!
I posted a photo of him too, looking for a forever home.
They were reunited and went crazy!
Then they napped.
Jump, Jump, Jump.
Jump, Jump. Jump some more!
They were super hungry too. I gave them small amounts of food throughout the day. They both gobbled it so fast.
I'm not sure if this video will work, but its a short clip of how happy they were playing outside.
Before our no-kill shelter closed for the night I said goodbye and handed them over. They will be spay/neuter, micro-chipped, vaccinated, have 30 days pet health insurance, a free vet visit, and have a personalized ID tag. They didn't think they would have any problem finding a home for them. (she called them cha-weiners, I think. Chiwauwau and wiener dog mix)
So, that was my day in a nut shell. I'm hoping for some quilting time today.
Have a fantastic weekend.
I thought the end of your story would be that they went home with you! But hopefully, they will find their forever home soon. Looks like though, you had a fun, busy, snuggley kind of a day.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking you might keep them 😉. You are a very big hearted person.
ReplyDeleteOh Lori, My heart skipped a beat when the photo of the black one appeared. My daughter has two rescue dogs and Jasper looks exactly like your little black pup. They were never sure of his lineage, but her vet suggested Chihuahua - Dachshund mix as well. I'm afraid if I lived on the west coast they would both come home with me!
ReplyDeleteGood luck finding homes for them. I don't think you will have any problem as they are so cute! (BTW, not here).
ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful day!! Sewing can always wait when you have such cute companions to entertain you! Hope they find loving forever homes, despite their rough start at the side of the road. People are unbelievable....
ReplyDeleteHow cute. You were definitely their guardian angel. I wish people wouldn't dump dogs. That is NOT the humane thing to do.
ReplyDeleteAnd a glorious day it was! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWWWHHHHHAAATTTTT? your not keeping them?? What a fun story!! Have a wonderful day, Laurie
ReplyDeleteBetter you than me. I'm not sure I could have parted with them!
ReplyDeleteThere is no way I could have parted with those two sweet pups! Just looking at the pics melted my heart! So adorable! I'm sure they will find wonderful, loving forever homes...

ReplyDeleteBoomers favorite place to snuggle when he was a puppy was in my vest too. Good for you for loving on those sweet babies! I hope they find a forever home together. Thanks for sharing such cute photos!

ReplyDeleteWhat an interruption!! They're adorable :0)
ReplyDeleteCuteness overload!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the smiles. Glad you have a "no kill" shelter!
"Happiness is a warm puppy", as Charles Schultz once wrote.
ReplyDeleteIt was great that they had a play date with you & your hubby!! Glad you have a humane place to keep them. They will find homes quickly.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad that farmer found them! He could not of taken them to a kinder soul than you. I am glad you have a no-kill shelter, I am sure they will have homes soon.
ReplyDeleteI would so love to adopt those two cuties, but I am in Canada and logistically it would be impossible. All of my fur babies have been adopted from shelters...love, love, love this post really made my day...
ReplyDeleteClaire
Good for you for saving the pups lives! I have to admit......that little girl looks pretty comfy with you and your hubby!
ReplyDeleteI thought this story will end with you the proud owner of two new puppies!
ReplyDeleteI'm not a dog person but who can't love a puppy or two? Super cute! Hope you find them forever homes soon.
ReplyDeleteLori, your story truly warmed my heart...what a wonderful thing to do. I hope they find loving homes soon.
ReplyDeleteHow adorable. Thank you for taking care of them for the day and making sure they went to a no kill shelter. If I lived closer....
ReplyDeleteThey are so very cute! I am sure that they will be adopted right away. I love the pictures of her asleep in your jacket and peeking out of your hubby's jacket.
ReplyDeleteWell, it was a fun post and a good day, even without quilting. So glad those cute dogs were rescued.
ReplyDeleteI followed this on your IG feed too. This is a wonderful blogpost, I love it. You did a wonderful thing saving them, such beautiful, sweet little things, how can someone just leave them out there.... I will never understand these things. It is great you saved them.
ReplyDeleteThere's a special place in heaven for people who love pups.... I'd a had a tough time parting with them. it will come back tenfold..promise.
ReplyDeleteThey are so cute, and you're such a wonderful family for taking care of them until they could be turned over to somewhere safe!
ReplyDeleteOMG they are adorable!!! what a sweet story
