Puppies Adopted

Almost 5 weeks ago I found these 4 pups, plus one more, in a box on the side of the street (one died 2 weeks after I found him). The vet kept them for 3 weeks in order for them to get back to a healthy state and for the last 2 weeks they have been extra playmates for my kids.


While there is no local SPCA, there is Doggie House here in Santo Domingo. It's a link through Facebook of a group of people here who reach out to maimed dogs and help with adoptions via the internet. We adopted one puppy out via Doggie House and 2 via friends. We will keep one. It's still yet to be decided if we will keep the brown one or a black one. We'll find out this week when Adeline makes her final decision! She has done AN EXCELLENT job taking responsibility and feeding them 3 times a day (which requires measuring the right amount and putting a touch of water with their food).

She started crying tonight during her prayers thinking that she will only have one puppy after this week. Her tender heart amazes me....and challenges me!
