Project Puppy

I should know better.  If anyone says, "Hey want to go look at a litter of puppies?"  I should just RUN! 

So last Tuesday one of my friend's said, "Hey, I heard about these free Border Collie puppies on a farm.  What to go check it out?"  It's well known that I'm the crazy dog person in my group of friends.  We didn't have anything to do that afternoon and there is a good ice cream place in a town near the farm, so we went to see the puppies.  Did I mention that it was an hour drive?

I'm making this story shorter:  We got there and the puppies were in bad shape.  On Thurs. I brought them some puppy food, because they didn't have any.  The mama dog was trying to feed all 8.  I contacted the Border Collie Rescue of MN and they said they could help out.  Today I went and told the guy that I could take the puppies and find them homes.  I think he heard that and now thinks they are worth something, so he said he would let me know in 2 weeks - after his daughter, who is on vacation, comes back and picks out her puppy.

Ok whatever.  At least they have the puppy food that I brought them to eat.

I'll let the pictures do the talking now....

Mama dog and her sister - They are BC/Old English Sheep dog.  They kind of look like PWD too.  The dad of the puppies is unknown.  Maybe a brown wrinkly dog???? Not sure what kind of dog that would be

Video of puppies nursing.  They are so sweet :)  There is my favorite one that always comes over and wants to be picked up.  She comes over to me near the end of the video.

Can you see the puppies?

Nursing.

This is my favorite one.

Hopefully things turn out OK for these little pups.  We'll just have to wait and see, I guess.

Petfinder Adopt the Internet Day

Today is Petfinder Adopt the Internet Day.  I love looking at Petfinder.  Not that I'm looking for another dog, but it makes me appreciate my puppy more (somehow) and I love looking at dogs.

So for today:

Tibetans looking for loving homes.

Daisy is 7 and looking for a home after her owners had kids.

 Fostered in Illinois

This is one that has bothered me for a long time.  Lilbit is 4 years old and deaf.

  She does not play with toys.  ????
Lives in Ohio.

 

Speedy just turned 1.  He lost his home after his owner died.

Sad. 

 Fostered in North Carolina.

 

Bobby McGee  What a pretty boy!
Fostered in Arizona.

 

Misty is 5 1/2 months old.  A little baby!

So cute!
Fostered in Oregon.

Keika has 2 blue eyes!  She is 2 years old and in Alaska.

Good thing or I might be tempted....

There are many more Tibetan Terriers on petfinder.  They get added everyday.  The sad ones are the CA high kill shelter postings.  So sad.

Now this last one isn't a TT, but I really like this little boy.  Not sure why, but here he is.

 

Snowball.  He is an Aussiedoodle.  Australian Shepard x Poodle. 

He was rescued from a puppy mill.  He is very shy.  He hates to be crated - just like Tibby.

 Fostered in Minnesota.

Well, there they are!  Looking for a friend?  Check out Petfinder!
