PUPPIES PART 2: ERIN CARPENTER AND DEBBIE SANCHEZ RESCUED SOME VERY PITIFUL PUPPIES. HERE IS ERIN’S STORY.
I The puppies came to us over Labor Day weekend, scabs covering their flea-torn skin, washboard ribs and hard round bellies full of worms. They slept all together in an extra-large wire crate making a white, brown and tan pile of indiscriminate ridges and limbs. We had eight the first night, and they ate until we feared they might burst and then waddled around a minute and fell over asleep. Soon after they excreted an equal amount of mess, and I began to fill the first of many trash containers with poo-covered issues of the Sylva Herald. Thankfully, Debbie Sanchez took half of them to her foster dog haven in Birdtown, or I’d be dead by now. II Things our puppies did other than poo. 1. Pee 2. Come at the sound of a squeaky toy
