I will be praying for Ellie and you and your friend...I did read the other post just a minute ago and was going to respond and then my computer shut down, when I was looking for it, I found this new one......I think you did the right thing and don't worry about what that stupid woman says, you are help out little puppies that don't have a voice and that woman should be put in jail for cruelty to animals....Hang in there and I will be praying for all of you and Ellie too.....
