From Ms. Green Jeans

Today I took the puppies out to meet Sadie. She had not seen them before. Though I think she knew they were here.

One of the hard things about living in the country is that you find animals that are dumped way too often. Brother and Sister are a perfect example. Thrown out on the roadside at 3 weeks of age, just nursing puppies. The puppy I call Brother was in the middle of the road when my brother saw him. He thought he had run over him! He stopped and picked him up and brought him back home. Long story short I went back with my nephew and found Sister in a pile of dead leaves on the roadside. I have been bottlefeeding them and they are thriving now. They will make terrific pets for someone. We can usually find homes for them. I have no idea what kind they are and will wait to see. If Brother is any sort of farm dog I will keep him. Sadie really does need some help and a buddy as well.

I have used puppy formula and colostrum (Natures Sunshine Products) as well as probiotics and they are really doing great. Hopefully I can get pictures to post!
