Notes from Chama Valley Humane Society

Marlo and his two littermates were left by a stray mama dog near the house of a woman in Dulce. The mama dog was black and skinny and didn't look in good health and the woman thinks she may have died as she didn't return for them after the pups were about 10-14 days old. She bottle fed them with formula and kept them safe inside or on her patio until they were about 6-7 weeks old. She thinks a neighbor's Great Pyrenees may be the father, but there is no proof of this (though the pups do look like they could have GP in them).

Marlo loves to eat and knows how to cover the food bowl to keep sisters away. He is happy as a crab when company is near. His face is a bit longer than Sasha's.
