Shelter Pup – Tango
No creature looks any sadder than a heartbroken, 12-week-old, Beagle-mix puppy. And this puppy, Tango, has a right to be sad. He’s the little leftover. Tango was sad when he watched each of his littermates carried away. Still, Tango had Mamma and the humans that he’s learned to know and trust. Then one of those humans picked up Tango.
Tango’s humans had decided that his time in his birthplace was over. Tango moved into a shelter kennel. Wire walls confine him, away from grass. People feed him and, briefly, pet him, but no one has time to stay. Worst of all, Mamma is gone.
Right now, Tango still loves and trusts people. He needs to go to a home, before sadness ruins those natural feelings.

Karma is little more than a kitten herself; kittens who aren’t protected grow up quickly and sadly. Even though someone taught Karma to love her humans, even though they taught her perfect manners, and even though little Karma did everything they asked, her people never had her spayed. So, before she was grown herself, Karma had kittens.
