One evening last week Jim Storey and a co-worker were hard at it hoisting bags of feed at Wettlaufer's Feed Mill when they noticed a bag at one side of the yard' was moving. Advancing upon it very cautiously, they opened it gingerly and found four of the cutest little pups. Someone had callously dumped them where they could have frozen to death.
