I went to the nearby Max Hospital. Nice clean place. The driver from the consulate nearby drove the car, so it was a great help. The vet said you three look like German Shepherds, no one could say you are stray dogs. One was less about 3.75 kg, one 4.5 and one 4.80 kg. A full kilo separating them :D.
I am so glad I've got this done. Such a relief. I could never bear to see you go the way the others did. I know, it would break my heart if someone took one of you, even if it meant your getting a good home. I can barely take care of myself, how could i take care of you properly. If you must be adopted, Lord, hopefully they will be nearby so i can see you from time to time. My dear little ones, you are a part of me. I have held you, I have looked into your eyes. What can I say.
I have looked into your eyes and recognized you. I have recognized you as a part of me, of my soul.

Your greatest gift
I think of the little ones all day long. How I love them. I look at their pictures and talk to them all the time. How I love what you have given me, Beloved Lord.
They are so naughty, wrestling and fighting with one another. What fine Lionesses they will become. It pains me to them back in their little place we've made to prevent them from running on the roads and getting run over. They make a racket and struggle to get out. What can we do ? The alternative is too dangerous. In a week or two, they will be hard to contain, and will be running around. That's when the real danger comes.
I so feel linked to them, so joined to them. We are one. If I have ever had any children of mine, these are them. Raja and these 3 and their mother, these are mine, My very own always. We are forever one, after this life we are united, never to be separated again. We are already one.

Three female Pups
Father
Your beloved little ones are doing well. Tremendously naughty and aggressive. We've hacked together a little thing to cover the drain so we can contain them, and they don't run around. I let them run around and do their business and play. Then when they've played enough, I put them back there.
I hate doing that since they want to play and run around in the open, but its too dangerous at present. They cry a bit and then settle down. The brown males has not been returned so i guess he's staying there. I hope one female can be adopted, managing 3 is tough. Two will be doable.
Life in a body is tough. Especially if the mind is still there. Father, I'd give all this away without a thought to be with you forever.
Love,
Me.

Pup returned, another adopted
The folks from the Dubai embassy who took one black female quietly dropped her back the next day. She must have cried all night. We found her crying a few houses away. So we were back to four. Someone was to take the brown one but didn't. The mistri (carpenter or something) who had promised to take the brown one has. Don't know for how many days.
Yesterday I talked to the contractor of the building opposite if he could help us do something so we could contain the pups in that area. Today he did not come. In the evening I asked one person if he had some spare material that we could use. Immediately others came and began helping. We've covered the ditch with some wood and blocked the side with a stone. Not great since its dark inside. Tomorrow I'll see if the contractor can get us some grill like thing to cover the ditch with, so its not dark.

One black pup has been adopted
Today, a car had come to drop gifts at the consulate opposite where the pups are. Someone put a black pup into the back and the car was parked on the side. I stopped our car, and had a word with them. They were from the embassy of Dubai. Seems it is far away from here, so I will not see the dear one again. The driver said they would get her vaccinated etc. They live "on a floor" perhaps meaning not a full bungalow or independent unit. Not ground.
So that means one little one has found a home.Spoke with the lady from the consulate about getting a speed breaker put and some kind of fencing for you little ones so you don't keep running on the road.

My little babies - how madly I love them
Dear Lord
What is this you have given me!!! They are so so incredibly sweet and lovable. When i pick them up and hold them, and look into their eyes, and they look searchingly into mine, I am in heaven. They must wonder who this is, who loves them so much and who keeps telling them he loves them more than anything in the whole universe... who keeps telling them that there is nothing in the whole universe that compares to them.
There really is nothing, Father, nothing you ever created that compares to my little babies, the babies that you gave me. What good have I done to deserve such infinite grace. I am madly in love with whatever you have given me. The little ones, their mother, Raja, and the previous litter that are now with you.
Please help me in one respect. Tell me, guide me, so I may find a place where they can grow a little bigger. They are in great danger of being run over. Every day is a miracle, to find them still alive. Every day i am told one got grazed by a car. I do not have the ability to think of a solution, they must survive. Please guide me. Please tell me how I can save them.
Of the last litter of six, four were run over, and two died of distemper. Only one run over case we saved, my beloved Raja who is almost a year old now. Your precious little ones, your finest creation must survive, Father, they must live, when I touch them there is not greater experience in the universe.

The beautiful litter
The four are still there. Someone came and took one, returned it, took another returned it, then took the brown one, returned that too. I am told a "mistri" at the opposite house will take the brown male.
What joy I feel when I pick them up. I keep going every couple hours to feed them. I just went. They were all outside with their mother. The moment I approached, they left her and came running to me. One day this immense joy will be a distant memory. Yesterday, we went to Niz and drove past where our earlier house was. I saw Chhota there. Sitting outside C-70 with his black friend. He looks amazingly like our Raja. I wondered whether I would feel anything if I got off the car and went to him. Less than 3 years back, when I dropped him back, I had wept sitting in the car.
Will these all be forgotten soon. After all, the pups of the previous litter who all died, are also faint memories.
Through all this, I still don't know what I am doing in this body. It's becoming very cold here, sooner than usual. Body is freezing. What do i get out of all this ? And what could I possible get from anything anyway?
Father, I wait for you. I wait for you, reality. I wait for you, O Self.

Such beloved little ones, my children
When I pick them up, when i see them, when I hear their little whines, I know they are mine. You are my little ones. My beloved little ones.
I love you soooo much, i cannot tell you. Is there any difference in us. All day long i was trying to feed you little chaps so you would not go running onto the road. I went earlyish (if 8:30 can be called early), expecting to see not one survived, but all four were there alive.
I fed you, when you ate no more, i force fed you just for good measure. At lunch time i think i went back with leftovers. At 4:30 i got a packet of milk and a loaf of bread and kept going and feeding you every couple of hours. I must get 2 packets so i can feed Raja and the mother properly. I've been giving Raja's share to the little ones, so he's been left starving.
I just went to give them a last feed. Two can out and touched some milk and went back in. So i gave a lot of bread doused in a little milk to both Mother and Raja. Thank you Father, for keeping them ailve another day.
They are your children too Father, only you, only you could produce such lovable little creatures. Only You my Lord.

Lord, your help is needed !
Mother is not feeding the pups. She keeps running away and they keep chasing her. Onto the road which has very fast traffic. One of them got run over on one leg today morning. They are just a month old. Very small, have no sense.
There's no telling when some tragedy will happen. Please find a place for them, a safe place for them, a home or anything, so they can survive. I'll feed them more so they don't have to chase their mother. But we need to get them off the road. They are too small to know about traffic or anything.
They are delightful, the young ones. I love holding them. They are my children, Father. Please protect them.

Babies a month old and getting naughty
Today I spent a little time with my babies.
It had rained heavily last night so they were not to be seen. But in the evening when it was growing dark they were running about a car parked on the side. I got them back into their ditch and sat by them letting them gnaw my fingers. My little babies. Do they know I waited a month to see them? For a month I didn't know how many there were, and what colors.
How do they look? Just like me, of course. I can see it in their faces. Made for me. Those faces are made for me. I would recognize them anywhere in the universe. My own little ones. So I let them grow accustomed to my fingers.
Little do they know what a loving and lovely mother they have. And what a doting, devoted servant they have. Thank You, Lord, for this wonderful gift. I will love them and cherish them as long as they are here.
You always send me the best. How will I ever be able to thank you enough or repay you.

Mothers litter of 4
The other day I had my first sighting of the pups. It was quite accidental. Three are black and one is brown.
Absolutely lovely and healthy.
Day before I managed to get some pictures of them. Only three were out. They were struggling to get out of the ditch. One almost made it. I believe they have succeeded in getting out. Last night seems they were on the other side of the road. The guard there, told me he put them back today morning.
I don't know if they will survive on that road.
