And I'll ask again - where in Texas are the puppies located?  Mention has been 
made that the dam is from Kansas and the sire is a coyote dog, but no mention 
as to where the puppies are.  There is a vast resource of greyhound rescue 
networks in the state of Texas, and more than enough capability - IF these pups 
are rescues - to support the puppies until they are of an appropriate age to go 
into good homes.
   
  OTOH, there are a LOT of EXTREMELY irresponsible greyhound breeders in Texas. 
 While there is always a desire to help the dogs, the simple fact is that these 
individuals will happily dump ENTIRE LITTERS into rescue or onto unvetted, 
unsuspecting homes (who often dump them right into rescue), and let an already 
overworked resource assume all the responsibility for caring and homing the 
puppies - PRIMARILY SO THEY CAN BREED MORE LOUSY DOGS.
   
  As a breeder of top performance borzoi - my screwups are my responsibility, 
which is why I don't screw up.  Lives are at stake.  Angela, the poster, has 
done nothing to enlighten us as to why these puppies exist, why she has them 
(are they rescues, is she a breeder, etc), and what methods/requirements she 
has for placing puppies in homes.  She has only told us that the puppies are an 
accidental breeding, brindle, and available at an age considered far too young 
by every respectable sighthound breeder I know.
   
  Simple fact - if there are listmembers interested in greyhound puppies, there 
are dozens of respectable, needy rescue groups across the country who have them 
available (along with quite a number of respectable breeders).  In addition, 
there is plenty of assistance available for Angela's dogs if she asks for it 
and provides details.  With such information lacking, there can be no remedy.
   
  And for those who don't know, my bonafides,
