Best Graphic Ever


Won't someone think of the puppies?

Sophie, the golden retriever, tried to tell them something.
"She started crying right away, and we had no idea why until we started to count the puppies and realized there was two missing, and then we realized they were two females," Avalone said.
Two puppies were stolen out of the 10 left from their original litter of 16.
"Well, it was simple," Avalone said. "They go with anybody. Puppies don't know any different."
Boughner said he and Avalone are just worried about the dogs' well-being.
"What did they do with them?" he said. "Did they still have them? Did they take them out and kill them or hurt them? Where are they at? Are they OK?"

Disregard the fact that these poor puppies are certainly dead -- killed for their precious pelts, no doubt -- who steals a puppy? I know they are pretty valuable, pure-bred golden retrievers can run you close to a grand. But is there really a black market for dogs? This isn't Korea.

Although, if you were doing a little B&E and came across this little face, could you resist having a new best friend? I say no. But then again I do suffer from soul-crushing loneliness. In fact, that could be some sort of anti-pharmaceutical mantra, "Puppies: Better than Xanax." Nobody ever overdosed on puppy. OR HAVE THEY?
