    Oh dear, not what you need right now, is it! But you certainly are a magnet to lost dogs!

    What are you going to do? Any chance their owner is looking for them? It seems that dog owners in your area need to be educated about taking properly care of their dogs!

    They are so cute, and of course, you could not leave them in the road. I hope they're all in good health, and you can find a loving family for them.

    Thanks for all you do to help!

    I found the dogs when I was within a couple of miles of my house in the little obsolete town of Winnesoga, Mississippi. The mom and pups were within a block of a railroad crossing there. I rousted two local households and was told that the dog was a stray and been being fed with table scraps. Upon enquiry I was told that the animal shelter had been called, but the people were told that the shelter did not go into the county outside of the city limits. The sheriff's office was called, and the people were told to call the animal shelter.

    Our local shelter is called the Corinth Alcorn County Humane Society. Their website is www.cachs.com.

    There has been a turnover in management at the shelter, and the reports I receive are not good. Of course, this is heresay only. The previous management did an excellent job of tracking down calls and complaints, and adopted animals out all over the country, but I am getting reports from local vets and their technicians that the current shelter management is actually adopting out animals that have not been properly screened (shots/neuter, etc). This could be wrong information. I hope so.

    I have personally delivered scores if not a few hundred animals to this shelter and have always had good cooperation in the past. I have not dealt with the current administration so I may be completely wrong about them. They haven't met me yet, but I suspect that they will soon.

    I have to say you are an amazing man. I wish I were closer to help with mom and pups, I have a soft spot for black and tan doggies.

    Are they still at your home, are you finding homes for them by yourself, or?



    Oh, and the last video made me giggle.

    I called the animal shelter, and they have agreed to take the pups. I shall deliver them Saturday. The mom doesn't stand a prayer of being adopted, and if the shelter agrees with my assessment then, ..., well, then I guess I just got myself another dog! ...... ... .........
