Sadly there are a lot of scammers and using dogs, kids, and signs stating their plight are their tools to get you to give money. We had a woman who would bring her children to a corner to pan handle all the time asking for money for food and shelter for her kids. It turned out to be a huge scam and as a matter of fact the kids were wearing the latest designer clothes. I had picked up a 2nd job as a waitress once and the man who had been pan handling at the freeway on ramp came in to cash in his money. He had made more money pan handling for 2 hours than I had working for 5 hours. He said why should I look for a job when I can make better money just hanging out at the ramp. It is sad that there are so many people willing to take advantage of the kindness of others. I will say a prayer for those dogs as they are innocent victims of this con woman.
