The five puppies dumped in a laundry basket in a Popeye’s parking lot are safely snuggled in some blankets in one of the kennels at the local shelter, officials said Monday.
Animal control found the six-week-old puppies abandoned in freezing-cold temperatures Sunday and said they were investigating who was responsible.
Prairie Paws Shelter staff named the pups Gumbo, Chocolate Chip Biscuit, Chicken Dipper, Popcorn Shrimp and Coleslaw.
