I'm sending that to my brother... not a kid but he NEEDS a puppy... cancer survivor, wife kicked him out, and he lost his precious black lab a year ago, he is living in a small trailer and doesn't think he can afford a puppy, but I told him I would help cover costs... I have been encouraging him to get a puppy for months... people have so much love to give and sometimes a puppy is the best recipient
