Man Notices A Cracker Barrel Bag In Middle Of Street, Opens It And Finds 4 Abandoned Puppies

There is an unwritten rule that dog owners and dog lovers know and understand: if you or someone you know doesn't want their dog or can no longer care for them, then please put them up for adoption. Pass them through the proper channels so that, if they can no longer stay with their owner, they can at least find another loving family.

This is something everyone should know and follow. However, we still encounter stories like the one in the video below: Four abandoned puppies were found in the middle of the street inside a Cracker Barrel bag.

Animal Control and Care in Lexington, Kentucky, received a call around 2 p.m. on February 1, 2017, from an anonymous man.

Apparently, the man was walking down a street when he noticed the Cracker Barrel bag.

Luckily, he decided to investigate further, and it was then that he realized the bag contained four puppies who couldn't have been more than 5 or 6 weeks old.

Why would someone do this?

Officer Timothy Brown said that the puppies appeared to be in good health, though he was still grateful that the Good Samaritan contacted them when he did.

Rescuers believe the puppies are a Chihuahua mix. Thankfully, the center has received many inquiries involving the pups' adoption.
