    I get so angry when people dump animals like that! Whether it's in front of a shelter or a private house, they have no idea if there's room for more animals. It's obvious that the owner of these two have noticed you are an animal lover, but you certainly don't need more right now!

    In a community as small as yours, I would think that someone know where they came from. I hope the local group you mention on your blog, can help and hopefully they will find a new responsible home.

    Good luck and thanks for taking care of them! They sure look sweet and friendly.

    I second that. It looks like you're a marked man.

    When I read this yesterday, I didn't have time to post. However, I see some people said basically what I was thinking: "they've got your number - nowhere to hide".
    What little cuties. They're little - surely you have room for those little guys!!!

    Yes, I do. Just like jello, I shall always have room for one more; but the truth is that there is a limit. I always first consider the local animal shelter. Where I live now there is no established shelter, but there is a group of people who are working together to foster out rescued animals in the community. If I had found a dog or a cat that appears to be not so adorable I would be very hesitant to take it to the shelter; but a couple of jacks or chi's I figure would have a much better chance of being adopted by a good family. I shall pursue the group in our area to see if they will foster these two; otherwise, I've already got names for them: Jack and Johnny!

    Anybody on Pet Talk want to adopt a couple of wayward waifs?

    They are adorable!! I'm sure the white/tan one would find a home quickly. But the little black guy may not be so lucky....that black dog/cat curse. Which never seems to be a problem at the shelter I work with.

    When I was a child we were driving home (my parents live in the country) and found two purebred German Shepherd puppies on the side of the road. My dad didn't hesitate to stop and get them in the car. I believe that is what started my sisters love of GSD's. She went on to have 4 more.
    Unfortunately, people always dump animals out in the country (we believe my moms current dog, Little Bit, was dumped). But it was fortunate for us when someone dumped the GSD pups. They lived out happy lives with us.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!
