Not only are there too many homeless dogs in the world, this is also a minor who is basically in charge of all of the dog's (and, if she had them, her puppies' care). It takes a lot to care for a litter of pups, and if they all didn't find homes, what would happen to them? I know our shelter only keeps dogs, including puppies, for three days before euthing. One of our nokill shelters here won't even take puppies. If the mother, who is already thin, couldn't care for the litter, who would be handraising them? I'd have to look, but I thought Onix was essentially a pup herself.
Here's hoping Onix comes through surgery wonderfully and makes a great recovery so she can get a permanent home
