Two tiny, wailing pups were dumped outside Dog House shortly after Keerthi moved in. They were less than a month old and had been separated from their mother. They wouldn't have lasted half a day on the street so Keerthi took them in. They never found homes and eventually became a part of the Dog House family. They're mixed-breed sisters, likely Indie-Spitz mix. They're called Ashley and Clove.
