Should they keep it or sell it?

March 11, 2019 2:23am CST
Two days ago I went to visit my brother and gave them some of the treats we got from the balik bayan box. Then I noticed that their dog "candy" had finally given birth. Sister in law's plan was to sell them once they are fully grown puppies. But their children were having second thoughts. While I was there I tried to persuade the youngest to sell them so that they can have funds for their other 11 dogs that their mom adopted.

Hello @shubhu3 of course that would make more than 10 dogs. But if you were talking them and their mom then thats good.

Hello @hereandthere That is very true and i don't see the children taking care of the dogs except the one inside the house.

They need proper food and care. So it is good to sell some of them to take proper care of the rest,.

Hello @Sreekala The problem is space, they don't have that much over there.

Hello @jobelbojel At least you also agree with me, maybe the children will be more capable of taking care of them when they grow older.

@Letranknight2015 maybe. Having 11 dogs is quite a huge responsibility plus the expenses.

Oh my gosh 11 dogs and now 6 more. That must be costly to feed let alone shots etc. They sure look cute.

Sounds like a handful, nothing better than the energy of life puppies bring though. Congrats on all the new children.

Hello @crossbones27 Well, puppies are playful but they need to be taken care of and it's a lot of hassle.

@Letranknight2015 It is dogs will teach you life lessons but they make you work for it because that is how it comes to them. One of the neatest things on earth. My Opinion.

Hello @YrNemo I feel sorry for them having 11 dogs, most specially for my brother. I don't know, but I'm certain they would agree with me their place is too crowded to have these babies live there.

Hello @Sheali They should be practical and their house is merely one fourth the size compare our home here. and those other dogs they have are in cages.

@Letranknight2015 so only 1 dog is in the house, while the 10 are in cages? so if they keep these 5 puppies, they will have 16 dogs in all. will they put them in cages also? you said their house is only 1/4 of your house.
