Do you have a ForeclosedUponPets in your area. They may be able to take them in, and/or tell you where you could either take them or someone come and pick them up.
I know the one shelter here is a no-kill shelter, and we also have foreclosed upon pets which is also no-kill. You are in New York, right? I don't know what agencies you might have there. It is a crime, for sure!

Oh my gosh Beth! Those poor scared Babies!! She has puppies too! Is there anyway that you can get them in carriers and then maybe keep them in your yard? I know and completely understand, you not wanting them in the house after what you just went through with Smidgen. But if you were able to block off a portion of your yard and give them shelter and food and water, and use gloves when handling them, then you wouldn't have to worry about your dogs. And then hopefully call some rescues and or advertise them for adoption. We know what will happen to them if Animal Control gets them. They won't even go up for adoption, because they will be considered owner surrender since some one dumped them. You may be able to catch them, just by sitting on the ground with a bowl of food next to you. Lots of people have won the trust of a dog by doing that several times and being very patient. Other wise, you can use live traps. How about calling the rescues in the area?? Especially the one that you helped out, they should return the favor! Were you able to find out where they are hiding with their puppies? Are they big Chi's? The man who dropped them off like that, should be whipped! Makes me so mad!! They may have chose your car, because of the scent of your dogs in it.

I don't know what it is about me, but I truely believe I was a Chi in another life.. LOL I went to get in my car at work last night, and 2 Chihuahua's were laying just under my car. It was about 100 here yesterday! I tried to coax them to come to me but they took off. I work in down town San Bernardino, so very busy streets! The lady from the bus. next door was out and they have dogs in their lot along with there chi from home and another 3 legged small dog. I asked her if she knew who's dogs they were. She said some man tried to give them too her, said they were strays living in a parking lot 2 streets over. So I watched them for a moment. I hurried to go drop my deposit off, then was heading to the store to get some food water and bowls. Coming down the road they popped out in too the street! I pulled over and jumped in the street to stop traffic! They almost got hit. They both ran to the parking lot she told me they where living at. I got back it the car and went and got the food and water for them. Came back and put it out, watched and when I pulled back they went and ate. I stopped by before work this morning, and the gate was open, men working. I asked if these dogs were theres. No, they said that they have been living in boxes. One had pups, but some died. They told me they were going to call animal control. I said I just didn't want to see them hit! & that they were almost hit several times yesterday. I left the rest of the food and filled the water. Another hot day today.. I don't know what else I can do. Beth
