Friend or not, given what she's told you, you NEED to let someone know about this situation. People like this should NOT be allowed to keep any kind of animal. PLEASE call animal cruelty or the Humane Society!!! If you're uncomfortable doing this, find an older friend or relative who is willing to help! You need to take the responsibility upon yourself to make sure this new puppy does not suffer the fate of the rest!

It's people like this who give pet owners a bad name!
