Need Help Finding a Home for 3 Puppies

We have 3 puppies left from a litter our dog had before we could get our male neutered. They are 3 1/2 months old now and we are desperate to find homes for them as we cannot afford to keep them any longer! We put out signs and so far, we have only given away 2 pups and now I am afraid these will get too old to find homes for easily. They are adorable black lab/dalmation mix pups. Does anyone have any good ideas of where I can list these pups cheaply without danger of running into people with questionable intent regarding them? I have tried Craig's list, but the responders made me very nervous. These are good, trainable, family dogs and we really want them to find good homes. Any help/ideas will be appreciated.

What can I do next?

You might looking into Desert Lab Rescue. If they are a lab mix, they might be able to help you place them.

I have adopted a lab puppy from www.azlabsandgiants.org They have many families that are in need and on a waiting list for puppies. A great organization, they screen and do home visits before adopting the puppies out. Good Luck!

Check with your vet to see if you can post them there. I have seen quite a few dogs advertised at the vet. Also look for a rescue shelter for either dalmation or lab.

Good luck

try posting flyers at community centers and child care facilities. Or send out and email to social services areas.

Have you tried Pets911? Their website is www.pets911.com. They have a section on their site that you can locate multiple sheltors, etc. This may provide you some resources. Another option that I know is becoming popular (although I am not sure how it might work with puppies)
is to donate them to nursing homes, etc., where they would interact with the residents, etc. This has become very popular back on the East Coast and has been beneficial all around for patients. May be worth looking into... just a suggestion. I wish you the best of luck!

L.-

Don't know about the puppies but here is some low cost spay neuter options for the female so this doesn't happen again. Also, you should charge something for the puppies so they don't end up in the hands of someone who will do the wrong thing. Call Spay Neuter Hotline ###-###-#### or Altered Tails at ###-###-####. In the best case scenario the puppies should be spayed and neutered before they find new homes to help end the pet overpopulation. 60,000 cats and dogs will die this year because there aren't enough homes for them right now.

Hello L.,

Try Craigs List. Now you can't "sell" them but you list a picture and a "relocating fee" to find them a home. We had some kittens that we needed to find homes for and we tried Craigs list and found them homes within 3 days and asked $10.00 for a relocating fee for them. I couldn't believe how many people wanted them. So give it a try.
