Three New Houseguests

17 Replies

Someone abandoned these 3 three-month-old female puppies in the street outside my house in the San Juan Cosala Raquet Club. When I took food out to them and tried to steer them into my garage, another woman came out from up the street with food and water for them. She said she’d been feeding them for two days but couldn’t take them in. They are now residing with me while I try to find them homes. I have a vet coming in an hour to give them vaccinations and to deworm and check for fleas. Hopefully Oscar will help me bathe them tomorrow when he comes to walk my other three dogs.They have comfy beds and a little dog house and space to run and play in to tide them over while they wait for their new people. (I want to keep them separate from my other dogs until the vet gives them a clean bill of health.)  I am willing to pay for more vaccinations and even their eventual spaying, but can’t give them a permanent home. I know most who read this blog are far away, but if you happen to live near Lake Chapala and could give them a home, my phone is 331-860-5304.

Update: on Friday, April 10, 9:00 AM. The vet came yesterday and gave them their initial vaccinations and deworming and flea meds. He says they do need to be isolated from my other dogs for two weeks. I would very much like to find other homes for them before that. I would be willing to arrange for them to be brought to you if you live a distance from Ajijic. I have them in an outdoor protected and gated stone-paved terrace 12X21 feet with a padded doghouse big enough for them all to sleep in, but still would like to see them relocated to a more comfortable place  asap. Please call me if you have any solutions.

About lifelessons

My blog, which started out to be about overcoming grief, quickly grew into a blog about celebrating life. I post daily: poems, photographs, essays or stories. I've lived in countries all around the globe but have finally come to rest in Mexico, where I've lived since 2001. My books may be found on Amazon in Kindle and print format, my art in local Ajijic galleries. Hope to see you at my blog.

    you have a heart of gold. There are places in Portland, Oregon, who ship dogs from Mexico to these parts in oregon. You might Google them? Best of luck, sweet woman.

    How wonderful you are able to care for them temporarily. We’re on the UK so no hope of a home, but I wish you luck and you have my eternal gratitude for looking after these babies.

      A darling family came and adopted one of the puppies. I am elated. They sent a video of the family playing with her and said how happy they are. They named her Bonita!
