Contraband puppies up for adoption

Yorkshire TerrierTen puppies were seized by customs officials at LAX.

They weren't just too cute to come to America; the five Maltese and five Yorkshire terrier puppies were suspected to have come from a puppy mill in Korea. What's more, their papers said they were four months old when they were, in fact, just weeks old.

Aw.

This is definitely a case where the law intervened to stop cruelty - but the puppies are going up for adoption anyway. At least whomever was trying to sell them won't see a dime.

The puppies will be available on December 20th from the East Valley Animal Care Center in Van Nuys. For more information on cruel puppy mills, click here.
