Giving little puppies away in a parking lot.
 

As we entered the parking lot of the Walmart store the other day, I noticed a boy and his Daddy standing by a small kennel. There were people looking at something. As we got closer I could see that they had a sign up that said " Free Puppies". I really hate to see that, of course I want to save them all. I held two of the puppies and smelled that puppy breath that I they always have. I glanced at my husband as he was mouthing the words "We can't". I knew that, as we already have seven at home. I have enough trouble with taking care of myself.
We have had the seven for quite some time and they know the routine, which makes it a lot easier.
The puppies we're on my mind all evening. Who would come along and get on
or two puppies, take them home, and have a cruel agenda in mind. Who would know what these people would do to these little puppies?
I think of my own dogs and how fortunate they are. All of my dogs are
spayed
and neutered. I guess that is what I'm trying to say. If you have to take your
precious Little pups to a Walmart parking lot and give them away, you certainly should spay or neuter your pets.
Truely a believer, D bug7

That is sad but does happen. People will get a pet for their kids and then not be able to care for it properly or have it spayed/neutered.

Thank goodness there are a lot of good organizations around now that help defenseless animals.

:hug:

We can only hope those puppies found good homes.

:rolleyes:

Both my *boys* are neutered too. I wonder how many puppies you prevent with each dog you spay or neuter? Hundreds? Thousands?

How many of them would have ended up in shelters? Euthanized?

I agree.

Both my boys are neutered and the female is spayed.

It is sad but at least the man and the little boy were TRYING to find good homes for the pups rather than dumping them only to be potentially euthanized. But I still agree...if you are going to get a dog or cat, please take care of them appropriately.
