    They're all so adorable and thanks for taking them in. I hope that you'll be able to find them all the loving caring forever homes that they deserve. Good luck.

    My best guess would be cattle dog/beagle perhaps. But they could have more than 2 breeds in the mix certainly. They are cuties and I hope they receive wonderful homes.

    Here's a picture of a red cattle dog pup.

    They can also have more than one father.

    A lot of people have Red Tick dogs around here so I think that is most likely as one of the breeds. Also Max looks and feels a lot like a smooth collie, although you can't really tell that from the picture. I could hardly keep them still long enough to get any good pics of them. Hmmm...beagle maybe, probably some hound. Heinz 57?

    Well Red tick is a coonhound.. I don't see beagle personally and beagles usually aren't red tick they are more solid colors... They look like coonhound
    (they are bigger hounds.. than beagles..) mixes to me. My coonhound was that small at 7 weeks and he certainly isn't a beagle as I knew what his parents were all coonhound.

    THANK YOU for stopping, for picking them up, and taking them in. BLESS you!

    Look at those sweet babies. Prayers that they are now on a path to loving homes. I am sure a local rescue could help! Puppies are usually easy to place, so don't take up foster home slots for too long.

    Seven!

    It is so sweet of you to take care of these pups. I become so angry with people who do not spay and neuter their dogs/cats and let everyone else take care of the problem once the animals reproduce. SO STUPID!

    My concern after the initial happiness of seeing their photos, was the expense of feeding and vetting them. I would try to find a rescue as soon as possible. They probably have not been given shots etc. - probably have worms etc. and could be expensive to vet at this point. A rescue could do this so much more cheaply than you could. Then there is the neutering etc.

    The pupsters are so darn cute. I wish I lived closer. The doggie day care, where I take Prue, my dog, takes puppies from crowded rescues and finds good homes for them. The puppies they take, have had all their shots and are fixed before the come to the daycare. Many of them are adopted by families that already bring a dog to the daycare!

    If these seven don't get fixed and live several years and reproduce, just think of the number of unwanted pets there will be. I think that is one of the reasons the rescues put down so many unwanted dogs/cats. UNWANTED IS THE CLUE HERE.

    I have NEVER had a cat or dog reproduce under my ownership. I did have one cat that was not spayed until she was three. She was an inside cat and I was stupid (age 20) .... but then gave in to the idea of having her spayed. Once my mind kicked in, I made a decision to have all my pets spayed and neutered from that point on.

    SPAY AND NEUTER, FOLKS. MAYBE WE SHOULD DO THE SAME TO THE STUPID PEOPLE WHO DO NOT SPAY AND NEUTER THEIR PETS. SORRY. I GET SO ANGRY BECAUSE THERE ARE SO MANY UNWANTED PETS.

    I love animals so and feel so sorry for the ones not living the life they deserve. Many do, but oh too many, do not.

    Amen.
