People never cease to amaze me on how they treat animals
Well apparently sometime over the past week or so, somebody decided to dump these little guys to die over by my house somewhere. My neighbor had said on I think tuesday that she saw 2 little puppies running around in my yard, then going in and out of an old empty building next to my driveway. I hadn't seen them, but I put a bowl of food and some water out on the porch hoping they'd find it. The food sat there untouched all week, and I hadn't once seen them so I figured they were just passing through and had already moved on to somewhere else. Took Piggy into the vet this morning, and I come home around 11:00 or so and as I'm pulling in the driveway I see 2 puppies run under the old building, one solid black and the other solid tan/orange-ish. These guys were absolutely scared to death.... took me about 4 hours just to get them to trust me enough to come out from under the building while I was outside. I made a food trail with some turkey I had, from the building, across the driveway, up a couple steps, and into my house. The black one came in and I was able to get him, but the other one is way way more apprehensive and still won't come near me. I'll have to work with him some more tomorrow...
Anyways, here's the first little guy that the scumbags left for dead. It's a male, looks to be a lab, prob only weighs about 5 lbs, and the only thing you feel is spinal cord and rib bones... it's like petting a skeleton. Once I got him in the house he was still super scared and hid under some chairs for quite awhile, but once I was able to get ahold of him and hold him for awhile he calmed down and almost went to sleep on my lap. Totally sweet pup though, no aggression whatsoever. He was dirty and smelled terrible so I gave him a bath so now he smells like apples, and they've gotta go to the vet ASAP cuz this ones got worms (not sure about the other one... prob does too)
He sure was thirsty!
Him and Piggy almost instantly bonded, lol
I'm kinda thinking he thinks Piggy is his mama.... he got all excited when I brought her out, following her around everywhere wagging his tail, and curling up in her belly
He was cooooold.... after his bath he just sat there next to the radiator for I don't know how long. Mind you it was 8 deg outside fri morning, so I'd say he's prob pretty lucky given how small and underweight he is
I'm not sure what I'm gonna do with them yet, if I'm gonna keep them or find them a good home elsewhere (and keep them together... I do believe they're siblings and they were stuck to each other like glue outside). I'll get them to the vet first thing monday and go from there. I hate when people do stuff like this though.... I mean you don't have to even be an animal lover to at least have a heart and take them to a shelter or something

Oh man... breaks my heart. I really hope you can get the other one! If you don't have luck soon I would strongly suggest calling animal control for help. I would hate for the poor bugger to die.

Definitely... me too! I'm gonna give it another try tomorrow, if I can't get him to follow the food trail I'm gonna go get an animal trap and put some beef in there that way he won't see me at all. Otherwise, animal control it is

All I can say is you are a great man. If you do keep them I think you will find that you will have the most loyal buds a man could ever have. A little love goes a long way. Good luck and thanks for having a good heart.

That's awesome. The wife and I used to go to the SPCA every Friday to spend a few hours with the dogs and cats just to give them some company and someone to play with. All 3 of our dogs and our 1 cat are all rescues. If you don't want them then we do.

So how's that song go... "reunited and it feels so good"??. I'd say that definitely applies here. The tan one still wouldn't come out of the trap, so the black one went in and they're curled up around each other sleeping sound as a baby. Understandably so too... they've been through alot lately and each other was all they had. I'll leave them be, when they're ready to come out, they'll come out
If I do end up adopting them out, they WILL go together.... not separating them

My puppy, who is now 9 years old was found abandoned with her sister on the side of the road. She and her sister were the only survivors of a 8 puppy litter. They were living in a rats nest. Apparently somebody had abandoned the mother when she was pregnant. People can be so damn freekin lame.
