We're having a puppy party!

Not really.
But these 9 little guys were dropped off today at work and they were just SO CUTE, I had to bring them home with me.

They got their nails cut, bathed, loved, snuggled, and now they're zonked out. I have a feeling that I will be woken by little puppy wimpers in the middle of the night. Good thing I don't have to work tomorrow.




SQUIRT- He is the runt of the litter. He has me worried because his back legs don't work quite as well as the other pups do. He's not as fast or as active as them either. He also has quite the over bite going on. He not even HALF of the other pups size. Very tiny guy. It's almost like he has some kind of dwarfism going on in all seriousness. His head is also kind of large for his body portion. I don't know, but I'm already really attached to him.



PENELOPE-

UMN Where do you work and are they hiring!?!?! I need a job that drops off puppies for me to 'SQUEEEE' over


ADORABLE!! OMG so cute!!!

Runts-if they make it the first couple days are generally a few days behind everyone else but make it -try not to worry to much. The pups had a stage where they were like frogs-all splayed legs and no coordination-runty is likely still there a little -I'm sure he'll come along What kind of pups? Who's were they? and SQUEEEEEEEEEEE! So cute!

We get puppies like this all the time. We had Rat terrier puppies about a month ago. And we have three golden lab mix puppies currently, but they are feral and need to be tamed before adopted.


Lol. They are Boston Terrier/Beagle mixes.
The man who brought them in said he was going to throw them in the river to get rid of them, but when he went to do it he said he just couldn't do that to them. Thank God a good consience kicked him in the face and he brought them to us. They are 7 weeks old.

I'm hope he does grow out of his wonky stage. If there is something medically wrong with him and he needs vat care, I'm going to foster him until he is ready for a permanent home.

Mikey

Awww that's sweet of you Do you work in a petstore or something like that?
I used to volunteer for a grassroots dog shelter and took pups home every weekend-umn for their benefit not mine lol

I work at a no kill dog/cat rescue.

Its an amazing job but so heart wrenching sometimes.

UPDATE ON SQUIRT.

Well I got him out of the cage after they had a nap, and I was watching him walk around...if thats what you want to call it. He has to work VERY HARD to pick his back end up off the ground, if at all. He has been doing a sort of army crawl more than anything. Something is not right and I'm taking him to the vet first thing in the morning.

Mikey

No kidding!! No matter how hard the job is-you do GOOD

Good idea on the vet-always always a good idea {{{Squirt healing vibes}}} Keep us posted!!

mcfrumple

Will do for sure!


Here is a video of him trying to walk:

OH EM GEE
If you dont keep the runt yourself I WANT!! HOW ADORABLE!

Yeah-I think the vet is the best idea here-I mean he can move his back feet which rules out spinal injury BUT that's very strange movement for the back legs-almost like their is no muscle develpment...totally out of ideas-something though.


And I'm 1/2 serious about needing that dog if you don't take him...well totally serious, the 1/2 is Dave and our area not allowing a second dog, ok and distance maybe a little. STill want him in a bad way thou!
