Today, I hear some sounds at the gate and walk across to investigate. I find five small pups amid the debris, all colored differently. Their mother comes running and growls at me. The dappled one looks up and tries to stand, it has a foreleg missing.
Note: the pups have grown since then. Dappled is the one on the left. 💕
