A woman in Ty Ty saw a garbage can on the side of the road. It was the type of kitchen garbage can that has the swinging lid on the top. Just as she saw the can, she saw the head of a little black puppy peek out. There were three puppies abandoned in the garbage can: Two tan puppies and one black Lab-mix puppy.

She took the puppies home and fed them � she said they were starving to death � and kept them several days. Then she took them to the Tifton-Tift County Animal Shelter.

�They are all in one pen together and happy as can be,� Regenia Wells, director of Tifton-Tift County Animal Control said. She said she didn�t think she would have any problem finding them a home.
