I would like for you to meet my new doggie foster family I picked up today. Mom's name is Cricket and they think she is Maltese. She is the sweetest girl. She has four - 3 week old puppies. Two boys and two girls.
The shelter gave me a cage to keep them in and they are in my office so Cricket can watch me all the time. I have a child gate to keep the kitties out until they get used to each other. She is a great little mother and very attentive and protective of her pups. The people that owned her and the daddy brought them all in when the puppies were born and gave them up. Rascals. They came back for the dad yesterday but do not want the mom and pups. So I am going to foster them until they are about three months old and can be adopted. One of the ladies at the shelter has already put dibs on the Mom Cricket.
Cricket is very sweet and smart. I took her out after giving her some food and drink and she went potty right away and didn't try to run or anything. I have a fenced in back yard but need to look for holes she is tiny. I guess she might weigh 5 pounds. She is a great watch dog and looks out my office window and growls at people and cars. Not in a bad way, just a "keep away from my babies way." The puppies are very healthy. One of the boys is the biggest and cries and puppy grunts the most. One of the girls is the littlest one and has already stolen my heart. I have to come up with names for the puppies. Any suggestions?
