Man that sucks and hate to hear about your bitch and the pups.I work at a freakin dump site for unwanted dogs.Its not actually a dump site , we work on heavy equipment, but people dump thier unwanted dogs and cats here all the time.I can't even remember how many I have fed and found homes for.I never took but one home .I feed and water them right here at work , oh and worm them also.One I took home was what looked to be a red nosed APBT she was a awesome dog and i never got the chance to see her grow up.She got away from me one day and took out after a cow and got hit by a dam tractor..She was hot headed as the day is long and never made a sound unless she wanted to get at something.
