They let it happen again! *3 more pics added*

Is there anyway you can convince them to get her fixed? Offer to help pay/pay?

I know we have very low cost spay/neuter clinics around here... do you have any near you?

It's hard not to listen to the people on the other forum. One person even said she would have just let the pup starve to death rather than keep on enabling someone like them to just keep producing out even more homeless "mutts".

Kay, thank you for your suggestions. I have tried to talk to her mom, and even talked to my friend to see if she could convince her mom too. Her mom just ignores it I guess. I told my friend that I would help her mom pay to have her spayed and I guess they just don't care. When she is in heat they just let her go outside and don't even watch her so she gets bred every time.

If my friend could even take the dog from her mom and go get it done, at least the dog would be fixed. However, from what she has told me her mom won't agree to letting her take the dog.

i don't understand why your friend's mom won't let her get spayed! i mean, you are offering to help pay for it. i think it's a WONDERFUL thing you are doing for this little pup! those people from the other board are indeed heartless!
if you had just left Morgan alone she wouldn't be the healthy, happy puppy she is! good luck with the baby! pics are great too!

[molucass]

pics are great too!

Here is a few pictures. She squirms all over the place, so they aren't very good.




In the last two, you can see her staples.

You have done and are doing the very right thing. Any one who says otherwise needs a good swift kick in the pants!! I am so proud of you for taking in the baby and trying to help the mother. Perhaps the momma needs to go "poof" from her yard for a couple of days for a spay.

If they won't listen to you, maybe it's time to get animal control involved.

Well then It looks like I'm putting in my application for a good swift kick in the pants!

I agree with those that have expressed the opinion that you are enabling these people to continue with the abuse of this puppy's mother. I can just see their way of thinking. "she's going to have puppies again. No big deal, we'll call molucass, she'll take the puppies and we won't have to worry about a thing."

Not all rescuers see things from the same point of view. Neither viewpoint is perfect! There are millions of pets out there that have already known love and have been abandoned to die on the streets and in shelters.

When puppies and kittens are born they know nothing of life, love and happiness for the first few days. That's the time to let them go rather than to add them to the millions already desperatly in need of new homes and loving families. Thousands of rescuers raise entire unwanted litters dumped by uncaring owners every year which tremendously adds to the pet overpopulation problem.

These careless unwanted litters are a direct cause of the millions of shelter deaths of dogs that are no longer cute cuddly puppies.

There is no right or wrong answer. We all need to do the math and look at the entire picture before making such decisions.

You just need to take the dog to the vet yourself and get her spayed!
No asking... no more talking to them until your blue in the face, they are never going to get it through their THICK SKULL!!!!

Just pick her up... and drive her to the vet.
