Penang Puppy Party

We take a brief hiatus from street eats to bring you ... Cute Puppies!

Since we arrived in George Town last week we've been -- in addition to dog-sitting and hawker stall hopping -- caring for three homeless puppies which a friend took in after they were found in a box in a nearby park. There were originally five, but two have been adopted (thank goodness). The remaining three desperately need homes.

They're all girls, about 6 to 8 weeks old, sweet and playful and full of spunk.

There's a general mis-perception out there that 'street dogs' don't make good pets. Or that pedigreed dogs make better pets. Well, as folks who own three wonderful mutts that we took in off the street (including the mom and pictured pup from this lot), we can tell you that there's not an ounce of truth to it.

If you're on Penang or in Kuala Lumpur (we deliver!) and can give one of these little girls a loving home for life -- or know someone who can, drop me an email.

(Oh, and if you're looking for a pet photographer, we know just the guy.)

Thanks. And please spay or neuter your pet. These little ones don't grow on trees, you know.

Oh, I wish I can adopt them. Fantastic photos and puppies so adorable with beautiful eyes.
What a wonderful thing you are doing here in Penang during your visit, and trying to find good homes for them.

I have puppy fever so bad you can't believe it. You sure you can't deliver to WI?

If I could afford to buy those puppies a first class ticket to San Diego, I would. Beautiful little girls and it's so great of you to look for homes for them. Almost any dog will make a great pet... it's all up to the owner.

I wish you could deliver to Tokyo! Not sure my husband would agree... Gorgeous photos, as always!

Gorgeous!! I hope they find homes soon! Ohh the pain of living in a condo!

I must admit when I saw the title "Penang Puppy Party", my very first reaction was a shudder. Think about it... a food blog... puppies... a city with lots of Chinese people....

Thankfully your post is nothing like what I had feared and is hella cute. Good luck finding them homes.

Ohhhhhhhh. So cute! Tiny noses and paws and floppy ears.

I'm smitten.

Could you kindly deliver to the UK pronto? I want one......or possibly all three.

[Ho]

can I have one please?

We have a rescue dog from Singapore and while she is a daily challenge, she is also love pure and simple. Nothing beats puppy kisses and the joy of seeing a dog sleeping at your feet. Great pictures and best of luck finding good loving homes for these pups!
