puppies

About a week or so ago, one of the dogs had puppies. 5 all together. But already 2 died within days of each other. The other 3 are on the verge of surviving too. Its mother, emaciated, full of fleas, and covered with sores is unable to produce any milk to feed her young. The mother also has a broken leg from a car accident a while ago, so she can't fend for herself anymore.

However, all the cousins have claimed the puppies, and there are more cousins than puppies. Mine is the brown one. I'm going to call him Coco Puffs. One is black, and the other is white with browns spots (2 of them have this, one died already).

The stray dogs here are in pitiful conditions. Any animal lover would be devastated. [Which reminds me of the Athens Stray Dog story]

I watched Not One Less (1999), and it was great. They show a lot of Chinese/Japanese/Korean movies here, and I feel like I'm better for it. I get to watch a range of international and Asian films are not available in the US.
