Two New Fosters


The puppy pen is suddenly over-flowing with patients and the irony of it all is that there is no Asst to attend to them. The last girl we had was very careless with the pups and had to be dismissed. At present they depend on the good graces of the wardboys, who clean, feed and medicate but don't have time to linger around and bond with them. It is great when one of us can visit. They are overjoyed! When these two little ones came in, there was no question of leaving them at the Centre. The little orange and white had a horrible wound on his entire back and was only 11 days old. The little black male had an even worse injury and he had suffered it some time ago, much before he was rescued. His entire small back leg was broken at the joint and in a terrible condition. Anyway, they were whisked out to a foster home. Have to be kept in separate rooms as Inkspot's injury is open and can get infected. Alfie, the orange and white looked like an Alphonso mango when he came in and now by a coincidence, he looks like a small pumpkin!! He is absolutely greedy and adorable and only lives to eat. His wound has healed very well and as both pups are now 1 month old, he will be put up for adoption in about a month's time. Hope Inkspot recovers well but he will always be handicapped, poor little mite. This is what happens when these delcate creatures are born on the road; a most hostile and dangerous environment for them and their moms.
