these dogs there and I guess they had puppies, she was going to keep one but said she may have to put the rest to sleep if
she couldn't find homes for them, so if we knew anyone that wanted puppies to let her know. I asked what she meant by "putting
them to sleep", so I asked and my mom being as subtle as possible said it means they are going to kill them. So we took home
one named Pluto.”
