Description: 

My coteacher's dog gave birth to seven puppies. When I asked what she planned to do with them she said that there is a "dog buyer" that comes around once a month looking for dogs to buy in the neighborhood. This dog buyer is some sort of middleman and it's unclear where the dogs would end up if they go to him, they could go to pet stores, or for meat... who knows. My co-teacher was very enthusiastic when I mentioned that it might be possible to find loving homes for them so here they are on ARK hoping for warm and caring forever homes.

The puppies were born on December 1st. They will be ready to go to new homes when they are at least 8 weeks old (that will be February 1st). Their mom is very sweet, friendly, and cute she's pretty small but not tiny, my guess is about 7 or 8 kilograms. The father is said to be about same size- he wandered into the yard from a neighboring village. They are currently living in my co-teacher's house in Jeongeup, Jeollabuk-do and are all happy, healthy, and vigorous.

Sad update from this puppy's sibling's page:

Plop unfortunately didn't make it, I think he had some sort of congenial birth defect or something, but luckily all the other puppies are happy and healthy.
