Pup pack's POV
Nameless, what we call the scarred German Shepherd without a name, was quiet on night 3 of us being here. He was thinking of a plan to escape. The rest including us were recalling our memories before being here.
   Bud went first in our 'circle of sharing' .
   " I was a dog fighter . I have used to live happily with my family along with our human family , until one day a neighboring dog convinced me to go hiking with him while the humans were gone. I regret everything. These people picked me up and acted like I would be safe with them. The next day they put me in a cage and I saw a small crowed all yelling 'Fight' the last thing I saw was the other scratched up mangled dog sinking his fangs into my haunches .The people that took me thought I was useless and dumped me out on the street like I was just a piece of garbage ."
"That must have been horrible ,"Lori exclaimed.
"Oh my gosh ,"Robert replied .
"Not to be rude or anything but what in the world is a human ?", Mischief asked breaking the silence other from the tears.
"A human is this tall furless, featherless , creature that is well , the Dog Catcher is a human . They call themselves people ."Lillian answered .
   They swerved their heads toward Lucy . She was about to share her story .
   " My owner couldn't care less about me. At first he loved me when I was a puppy ,but the second I grew up , he was bored of me. He still kept me , though . I was locked up to n a chain attached to his house , with a muzzle that was taped shut . As I grew the muzzle only got tighter and tighter . He never checked on me , groomed me, or even fed me since he locked me up! I was rescued by these people who called themselves the A. K. C. American Kennel Club. The searched everywhere for a good person for me . They found this really old man . He let me go because I don't know something about ... affording demications I think ? Any way that's how I ended up here."
She finished in tears . Her muzzle had been so tight it dug into Lucy's flesh exposing it to all .
" My owner was horrible . She , I will not give her name for I don't even want to hear it , I was fine until I felt something wrong on my right side . A tumor .All she had to do was take me to a one of those people that fix us, umm , a vet . She would not take me and let it grow to 46 pounds! I was disabled to walk for it was pushing on my right leg . I couldn't even stand .  She abandoned me on the beach of California . These people who were police officers rushed me to the nearest vet . The did have to shave most of me , but at least it was worth it .They finally took the tumor out . They eventually found an owner for me who was just as bad as the last one and sold me to the pound . So here I am", Henry sobbed .
   " I was raised by a stray family of cats. The mother lost her kittens so adopted me for I had lost my mother to a human . She could hardly take care of herself , though she did her best for me . One day a truck came . She ran away and left me there to be taken .Helpless and alone. " Danny finished ,crying.
Gabby's POV
" Come on Nameless . What's your story?", Michelle asked.
  " I don't have one " , Nameless simply fibbed .
   "Come on. We told ours. "
   " No!," he said firmly this time," I don't want to tell what happened."
   After we all finished , except Nameless , we were quiet for the rest of the hour. The Dog Catcher walked around as usual , but this time he had a tall, slender , brunette haired woman. He was really nice to her which was not at all like him . The Dog Catcher always wore a navy blue jumpsuit, black leather shoes , black hair all jumbled up and crazy, and a mean look on his face . Today it was not like him either with a nice tuxedo, brand new shiny black leather boots , and the scent of gel was in his neat hair. By what I have learned so far he really liked this woman and I could smell it .
   " Be good dogs as usual okay !"  , The Dog Catcher smirked . " He went off . Time to devise a plan.

Hi again. Did you know that the stories that the dogs shared are actually true? ( except I gave a few different names and breeds ) I thought I would make it that way so they could be some what 1st person articles of the stories . They all found good owners though and weren't just left in the pound for their whole life . Please vote and comment . Thank you !
