Long Time, No Woof

Woof, cough, cough, woof from Panajachel! This is Einstein, retired street dog reporting . . .

This old dog has had a rough month! I tell ya, gettin’ old is a DRAG! I’m better now, over my laryngitis and achy bones, so, it’s time to catch you up on news from all my friends who’ve recently found new love and homes! I’m sure you’ll recognize a few furry faces.

A HUGE WAG OF THE TAIL TO ALL THOSE HUMANS WHO FOUND LOVE AND FAREWELL NOSE KISSES TO MY DOGGIE FRIENDS! I’LL MISS YOUR BUTTS!

Now on to who’s new and who’s still with us!

STILL LOOKING FOR LOVE

All these good looking girls are sterilized, vaccinated, healthy and ready to go home!

Ten days ago, I sniffed out a story after overhearing a phone call to Selaine from Ezzie. Evidently, one of the ladies of the street had a litter of 8 pups around a month old and someone had moved (or dumped) them near the police station down by the docks.

After further investigation, it was determined that the mom and pups were indeed homeless. A terrific guy, named Manuel who operates a lancha (boat taxi) gave the two women the scoop. The mother has been hanging around the docks for about two years. She’s had 4 litters of pups and is no more than 2 years old. Manual was very happy that she was finally going to get some help because the third litter was still born. He has promised that once Mom is through nursing, sterilized, vaccinated, etc. that he will be glad to keep an eye on her.

Thank our lucky stars, Norm and Linda were willing to take on this special foster care situation! Thank you two SO much! A HUGE AND VIGOROUS WAG OF THE TAIL WITH SLOPPY KISSES, TOO!

No one’s been able to get a good shot of Mom yet, but here are the babes:

Yeah, they’re a fine lookin’ bunch! Four boys and four girls all of whom will be ready for loving new homes in about 5 weeks.

As you can see, our “cup runneth over” at the moment!

Please support the Emergency Services Project of Healthy Pets to ensure that sweeties like these have a fightin’ chance!

Until next, keep you tail waggin’ and a smile on your face! If you’re of the “bully dog” category, drool and luggies are good, too! This is Einstein signing off!
