| Introduction | Momma and 10 pups (yes 10!) were born on New Year's Day. Despite our family business being devastated by the poor economy and the fact that we also had a non-profit project depending on our support, we helped to rescue this sweet momma and her newborn pups from being euthanized at a high-kill shelter. It all started with an innocent search to adopt a puppy. On Sun., Jan. 2nd we saw a '911 - Help' post on craigslist from a rescue group desperately seeking a foster family for all 11 of them since the puppies were newborns. We've never done anything like this before but after learning that momma/pups were at high risk for euthanasia at the shelter, we felt we had no other choice but to step up and foster them - the alternative was not an option to us. So this is our journey as animal foster newbies. With a new addition of 11 we're taking the "It Takes A Village Approach" hoping that we'll find advice and support from others. We're going to need all the help we can get! Taking it all day by day... |
