A stray dog had a litter of puppies in my barn? General Dog Discussions
I just discovered a stray dog has given birth to a litter of puppies in an old barn/shed in our backyard. I really don't know what to do about it. We have a dog, don't need, nor would my hubby allow for us to have another. I don't want to call the humane society, because it's a really awful place and far from humane IMO. We have four small children and I know it's going to make for a difficult situation when the pups start making their way out of the barn.Any ideas or thoughts as to what i can do? How old do the pups need to be before they can be separated from their mother? OMG, the are soooo cute. I just don't really know what the best solution to this dilemma may be? Thanks for any advice you may have to share.Thanks to all that have responded, well all except uh, "iluvtorofl." Unfortunately, all the no kill shelters are maxed out, sooooo, it looks like I'm just going to have to let them reside in the barn for awhile and hope I can find homes for them, as i can't bear to have animal control pick them up. To mrs. iluvtorofl, WTF is your trip? i think you're taking things a bit too literal and out of context. what an ASS-inine statement to make, (mispelling intended, as to avoid the grammar police), so much so, that i refuse to rebuttal, as it would be completely unfair to have a battle of wits w/ an unarmed person(you). Thanks for the laugh though.Geez, I've been censored. A.SS-inine....thank you very much.
