Now getting to the title of the post...To keep or not to keep. Early last week i noticed a small black animal on our front poarch but was on my way to work and didn't have time to investigate. I didn't see it again for a few days. Then Friday was trash day and a brown dog got in our trash. When i got home @ noon (hooray for summer hours) our trash was all over the place. When i walked up to the dog she scurried away under our drive way into the sewage pipe. When i peered in there she had a friend with her. It was the black dog from earlier ing the week. So i got some bread and threw it in the yard to distract them while i cleaned up all the trash.
After an hour of cleaning all .72 acres i turned my attention to the pups. It was obvious they hadn't eaten in days so i felt bad and decided to feed them some more. I gave them some slices of bolongna and a big bowl of captain crunch (it was all we had). After those lasted .000132 seconds they turned to me for more. But that was all i had (or at least was willing to give at this point). So i put a big bowl of water out on the poarch, and they never left.
They stuck around all day friday, sat, & sunday. And that's when we decided maybe we would keep them. We don't have a fence so i bought stakes and long leashes for them. They didn't have collars so i bought those along with a big ole bag of puppy chow. So it looks like we have two puppies.
We're pretty sure they're labs (atleast i am, nicole's still not too sure). You can still see their ribs but they're slowly plumping up. The photo is from the first day they were here so they look pretty rough. (sent from blackjack)
