This little girl(her story linked below) almost didn't make it! But, with a little TLC, she has found her forever home! http://www.4dogsandalittlelady.com/tarzanlitter/3/

These pups are fosters, the adult bully breed is Cece(their foster sister). It seems they realllly like each other!

All the puppies in the video are fosters! All the big dogs live in this house all the time. It is amazing that these dogs have only known each other for a few weeks! You would think they were related!

This puppy clearly is having an interesting dream!

Highlights from our week! Including Abby, MangleCat and her MangleKittens, and more!

Just listen to them give their foster dad the "what-for".

These pups are part of the "How to train your dragon" foster litter. Cece is a seasoned pro at being an awesome big foster sister, she has helped foster almost 200 dogs!

`OnlyNaturalPet.com provided us with these Bully Sticks in exchange for our honest opinion. The contents of this video and the following article are 100% my own words and opinion. Growing up, we always thought we were doing our dogs a solid by giving them rawhides. They loved those things and stayed occupied with them for long periods of time. Little did we know then, rawhides are the canine equivalent of a Big Mac smothered in chocolate gravy! They also pose some other risks and, fortunately, we have avoided the serious problems that such an unhealthy treat. But as we have grown as dog owners, our family has searched high and low for a healthier option that still had the same “staying power” as a rawhide because, as mentioned before, the dogs really enjoy them. Our dogs, and bully breeds, in general, can probably, and I'm only half joking, chew through cold-rolled Pennsylvania steel given enough time and a good enough reason. So a potential candidate for a chew has to give our dogs enough fun, a.k.a chewing time, for its cost. I didn't think that they would be but these two simple requirements are surprisingly difficult to meet in one product. Fortunately, we found Only Natural Pet Bully Sticks (http://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=564943&u=1282565&m=6187&urllink=&afftrack=) -affiliate link- and, well, I believe the video speaks for itself. They are healthy, tough, and the dogs go crazy for them. Another great aspect of these bully sticks is their price point. They are very inexpensive for how long they last and a single pack of 5 could easily last a dog a month! Onlynaturalpet.com also provides an auto-delivery option so that our pups never have to go without(even if you're as absent-minded as me). All in all, these particular bully sticks earn my stamp of approval. As a bonus, ONP uses carbon-neutral shipping!

This little puppy is fearless, just look at him playing with a leaf blower, so funny!

These orphaned cuties have a particular aversion to bathtime! Orphaned puppies all have one thing in common, they are gross. They pee and poo wherever and whenever the urge strikes them. This includes on their sleeping siblings. In fact, a sleeping sibling seems to be an invitation! It's almost like putting your best friends finger in warm water, drawing something vulgar on their face, all while they are "sleeping" due to "copious" amounts of alcohol. The only two options that I, as a foster dad, have for orphan litters is to: Stand poop watch-24hrs a day, 7-days a week. When we first started fostering, I tried this. It doesn't work! Puppies do not synchronizetheir bathroom breaks like some human women. Daily baths-This option is the bee's knees. Daily baths also provide me with amazing opportunities to capture the overarching "vibe" of a litter in general, and individual puppies specifically. There are usually three different kind of personalities that we see when the puppies have to get their morning wash. Timid- Usually hiding underneath the rest of his/her siblings, whining softly. Annoyed- Usually has paws up on side of tub, barking at foster dad to "let them out of here right now"(The two sisters in the video fall here) Curious- Usually playing with the water, his/her siblings tail, the shampoo bottles, etc The natural variance in their reaction to getting cleaned up is intensely interesting to me. I can often make predictions about their behavior in other situations based on how they react to this one. But, more than anything else, these bathtimes are extremely cute! If anyone is concerned about them being wet, I dry them immediately after bathing, I just can't take a video and dry the babies off at the same time. Also, the water is warm and I blow dry them too!

She, obviously, isn't doing it right, so little Uh-huh shows her how with adorable results

Little Raven, the one on the cushion, is trying so hard to get the other big dogs to play with her. I’m no more good when she does the little hall ways. I love watching these little girls grow

Orville, the puppy, doesn't quite know what to think of this video of his foster sisters eating peanut butter in slow motion

New foster orphans, no word on mom at all. Named after the cartoon. They have the biggest worms I’ve ever seen in their poo

Adorable foster pitbull puppy, Jubilee, came to us with Mange about a week ago. To learn more about her and mange, check out http://www.4dogsandalittlelady.com/demodex-what-is-it-and-how-to-treat-it/ For more videos of Jubilee(and the rest of our many fosters) check out our channel, youtube.com/c/4dogsandalittlelady

This boy meets the teen titan girls. This is their first time meeting. I wanted to make sure that I could intervene if needed because he’s boy can get rambunctious sometimes, which might lead to an inadvertent injury.

This is happy. He is a rescue dog that is currently being fostered by us. He first came to us after he healed, from being attacked by the female to which he was being a brat. I don't want to jump to conclusions, but it seems fishy how he ended up here. Fortunately for us both, is this tough as nails and he absolutely loves everything and everybody. Since coming to us, he has had to stay in his kennel most the time. But now that he's feeling better, I like to take him out during the day for a few minutes so that he can get a little bit of exercise. The reason I have to keep him in the kennel almost all the time is that the heartworm treatment can be fatal if the patient gets too excited. That means he has to stay calm I am not jumping off the walls for 3 to 6 months. That also means I have to find ways to occupy his time or he will become bored and boredom leads to bad behavior. I have to check myself because he's very strong which makes me be overly cautious. I know from my interaction with them so far that he is a gentle dog not aggressive at all, in fact, he didn't even fight back when he was attacked, but he is very driven when he wants to get to his Kong or toy and he's playing with at the moment. He's so big and strong, that he could hurt somebody( dog or person ) so it's important for me to be able to teach him about his own strength. This is why I am very wary of him around the other dogs. If he was to get excited, there's a good chance that he would behave in such a way that my dog will take offense. This it would almost certainly lead to a fight. If this happens, whether or not my dog gets hurt or it's him that gets hurt, I would be devastated. They were mean I failed at my job and I don't know if I could do it after that.

Chewbacca would be proud! Just listen to this little guy perfect his wookie call!

These puppies are mad at me because they need to be washed off every morning! This is particularly the case when puppies are orphaned and, therefore, don't have their momma to clean up after them. They tend to make a sport of getting dirty, often pooping on each other and/or playing in their own mess....SO GROSS! Needless to say, their morning shower is the first order of business, after coffee, in the AM. They know the routine too! Just listen to how much sass they are giving me, and I haven't even turned the water on yet! These six puppies are a part of the original nine that came to us covered in ringworm. This is not life-threatening but it is extremely painful and unpleasant for the puppies to go through. If you look closely, you will be able to see hairless paws, ears, and tails, this is the result of the ringworm and it necessitates the use of a sulfur dip that smells exactly like rotten eggs, YUCK! Fortunately, the treatment gets to work fast and the pups have made huge improvements over the 2 weeks or so that we have had them. The story we got from animal services is as follows. The owner surrendered the entire litter because "the mom wouldn't have anything to do with them". This isn't unbelievable in and of itself, but combined with the condition of the puppies, things start to look a little sideways. But, as they say, that is water under the bridge now. These puppies are almost back to one hundred percent and, within a week or so, it will be hard to tell that they were ever in such bad shape.

I always try to make a Mange babies as comfortable as possible. I feel like the secondary infections cause extreme discomfort so I tried to get soft blankets towels and said that nature in the kennel said that they had some comfort today I’ll have to be on a hard surface and what not
