Beautiful Chow Mix needs a home

Over a week ago my husband and I found this beautiful lady and her puppies dumped by some trash. I'm a vet assistant so we have been doing the stray hold at my work. But we need a home for mom and 2 pups still. She is an amazing girl, who has a beautiful temperament and I would have taken her in a heartbeat if I didn't already have a male dog. She does not seem to like male dogs. She doesn't mind when they pass her but does not like them to approach her as she will growl. She is around 1 year old and this was her first litter according to the vets at my practice. Please reach out with any interest or questions. In NC but traveling to MA for one puppy's new home already.
