Litter of SEVEN

Puppies and then some!!!  This litter of SEVEN arrived about a week ago in apparent good health but, as with many litters, there is often a "runt" who just doesn't have the size or strength to get his/her share of food and water. The little guy in this case is getting special treatment to ensure that he gets enough to eat and drink and the results are beginning to show already.

These pups are too young to vaccinate but when the time comes they will be fully immunized and ready to go home.  

 

Place your reservation now before it is too late!

UPDATES and THANK YOU...

~~~This is Antar. In addition to his 'ALS Bucket Challenge', he included donating food to an Animal Shelter - he chose Amigos De Los Animales.
A special donation from a special young Man!

~~~Our "Lucky Puppies" will  soon be 8 weeks old and be available for adoption in about another month.  They've had their first vaccines, and are extremely happy & healthy.  It appears that they will be larger size dogs -  so start making plans!

Hercules (Male) - Pee Wee (she WAS the runt) - Xerxes (Male)

~~~Francisco & his shy friend made a generous donation of Dog food.
Thank you!

Lucky Puppies - GROWING!

These Lucky Puppy pictures shows how well they are growing in their foster homes!  Looks like there is a surrogate Mom involved in one household.  And for those whose heartstrings are 'playing' - they will all need good forever homes in a short while.  If you are interested, please stop by the shelter on Bicentenario and talk to them.

Update on one of the 9 puppies...

.....Pee Wee, our smallest puppy from the 9 puppy litter, taking a power nap after a walk around the living room, and a hearty meal. She has doubled in size since she has been with us.

The "runt" from the litter of 9 puppies that were anonymously dropped off in a plastic garbage bag is doing fine.  She now has an enormous appetite and is even curious to explore the house.  Not bad!

UPDATE!!! UPDATE!!! UPDATE!!!

Posted by President Gerardo:

These 9 puppies truly are "Lucky Puppies" - we want to sincerely thank all these people who stepped up to help them.

All of the puppies that are huddled together are currently in Foster Care. The one by itself is the runt of the litter and is being cared for by me.

These are the responsible, caring fosterers for the 'Lucky Puppies' that were carelessly dropped off in a plastic garbage bag on Monday.  These people are the reason I love the Mazatlan community.

These Foster parents needed a crash course in caring for such young puppies, so our President Gerardo gave a demonstration to the volunteers on how to properly care for the puppies while Fernanda did the translating.  Each foster parent was sent home with 5 days worth of formula, and other necessities to help them get started.  It was a great moment in cooperation and the spirit of giving.

THANK YOU!!!        MIL GRACIAS!!!

Thank you also to Fernanda for your valuable assistance!!!!

URGENT!!!! Puppies need YOUR help!

As a follow-up to the puppies you see below, we need a few foster homes that can take at least 2 puppies to care for.  Because the puppies are so young, they need to be fed every 2 hours throughout the day and night.  Instruction can be given to you on how to care for them properly.  

These darling babies will need some good, personal care for at least one more month.  

Please call Amigos at 669-986-42-35 or stop by our shelter at: #3 Bicentenario, Col. Francisco Villa (Col Pancho Villa)

If you ride the bus: take the Alarcon bus south - it will drop you off right in front of the shelter.

Lucky Puppies!!

Lucky Puppies!   These NINE 4-5 week old puppies were abandoned in a BLACK PLASTIC GARBAGE BAG at the ADLA (Amigos de los Animales) doorstep on Sunday (the day we are closed).  Fortunately an observant lady that is employed nearby at a restaurant spotted the moving bag and took them all home.  She brought them back to us when we opened on Monday.  If it were not for her, all nine would have suffocated or died of heat exhaustion.  President Gerardo is doing his best to feed and treat them for worms, etc.  So far all are doing well.  Keep your fingers crossed.  Maybe we will name them Ocean's Nine - for now!
