Update on the 7 pups we rescued back in September:
They all ended up having coccidia parasite (a common but tough parasite to beat). Five of the pups responded well to medicine and antibiotics, but the two smallest pups were just too weak to survive the sickness and were put down about 2 weeks after arriving at NorthBeach PAWs No-Kill shelter. The pups were taken great care of and all recieved names after M*A*S*H characters.
The five surviving pups have now all been placed in wonderful homes: Colonel Potter went to Vancouver, B.C.; Klinger to Newport, Oregon; Winchester went to a family in Ocean Shores; Houlahan went to a single woman; and Hawkeye (the Alpha) went to a family where the father is in Federal service and has trained service dogs - perfect for an alpha like Hawkeye.
I hope to see pictures of the pups went they are grown up. I think they'll be amazing dogs!
