Puppies... I assume there's something unpalatable about your local shelter? I know it's puppy season, but maybe you could get on Petfinder and contact some shelters/rescues in the Northeast. Up here, a lot of shelters take dogs, especially puppies, from other (rural) areas where there are more unneutered dogs and fewer shelters/adopters. More dogs get homes, and more dog-wanting homes get dogs.
They are adorable. You really cleaned them up nice.

Awww, they are adorable... I don't know how any one could do that! Try contacting your local animal shelter and see if they can take them in, some animal hospitals will also find homes for kittens and puppies so you could try calling some clinics... Our local pet store will even take in stray puppies and sell them, but the bad thing about that is they will sell them to anyone and not ask them questions... Good luck with them, I hope they find a loving home.
I called our local no kill shelter and she said due to the number of puppy mills she picks up "not up to standard" litters She has at the least two a week. So she said she cannot take them unless its a life or death cituation. She said to stand at walmart and pick an choose

I know we had a bunch of puppy mills .. you can see them when you drive down the highway rows and rows of cages with mothers and puppies and a side ways barral for shelter .... Its really bad here.

I wouldn't hold to much faith in what she said. She's your local shelter. Springfield is supposed to be more "open" about situations and willing to help.
Go online and look up "breeders in Springfield, MO". Go through the list and email all the people on there. Tell them the story and send pics. Someone within 70 miles of Springfield (or Ava) is bound to help out. If none of the contacts or shelters work out put up flyers and an ad in the paper for "2 free mix puppies...need homes ASAP". Put up flyers at Wal-Mart, grocery stores, gas stations, etc. I know it's not desired but if they need a home that quickly you have to do what you have to do.

weird story about the hamster but here goes.
My dog loves the hamster...
Well shiloh (thats what we named him) was napping on my lap and I was playing with nibbles (the hamster) well I put him down to see what shiloh would do and to my shock he flew forward and bit him cant blame him he probobly thought it was a toy
Were working on his potty training...
Update!!!!!
We decided to peek into the classifieds and online ads and our trading post (radio show where you call in and say why you have forsale/trade/free. Well My mom came across a local person who is giving away min pin mixes. Sooo tomorrow I play snoop and Im going to call them and be like a nosy buyer.
How many puppies in the litter
any other puppies born at your house.
describe her puppies blah blah blah
then check if she had records of who all took her puppies ... then snoop some more and maybe whoever it is will help me track the dumper down.. maybe even some abuse/neglect charges would be nice for the dumper.

Did you see who dumped the pups? A truck, person, something? If she's giving them away she probably won't have any records, but it's worth a shot. She could have been the one to get rid of him in the first place, ya never know. It could be that the girl WAS his sister (dogs can have different fathers) so if she has any that are white/brown like her you may have something to go on.
You could really have fun and find out where she lives and bring Shiloh with you. Keep him in the car til you see the other pups. If they look like him, or her, bring Shiloh out and ask if she knows who she gave him to.
