I had just finished dinner one night, when my neighbor called me in a panic. Three puppies were running on the busy road just down the road from Paw Parent. It was dark out and leaving them there was out of the question.
With the help of other people we were able to catch all three. But now what?
My neighbor said that she would take them to the shelter, which would mean that three dogs already at the shelter would need to be killed to make room for them. They could also catch Parvo at the shelter and be euthanized and even if they didn't get sick, if not adopted they would be killed to make room for new arrivals.
Seeing them falling asleep cuddling together, exhausted from the trauma of having been abandoned, I just couldn't let that happen!
So, we squeezed them in. It is a challenge because we were so full already, but we are making it work.
Turns out the puppies are a new cross breed, Cattle dog and Corgi, called Cowboy Corgis. We believe that a backyard breeder who couldn't sell them now that they were about four months old, drove out to the desert and dumped them!
They are incredibly sweet and lively with lots of love to give. Dakota is outgoing, affectionate and loves people.
She is about 4 months old, weighs 24 pounds, is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped and ready to brighten up someone's life. Could it be yours?
