This is the pile of puppies I acquired last night. The two brindle ones are male, (you can't tell in the picture, but one has a black nose and one has a white nose) and the two solid colored ones are female.

The story goes that there was a stray in the neighborhood who was known to be pregnant. She was fatally hit by a car. My ex's uncle found them the night before last - they were outside crying. So he gathered them up and since I apparently have "sucker" written across my forehead, called me. (That's a joke - I probably would have called me, too.)

I've never nursed puppies before, but they seem to be doing well (I Googled the basics). They are less than two weeks old as of 10/07/10 - they don't even have their eyes open. I haven't a clue what I'm going to do with them - they make 12 dogs here at home. 👀
