A little old lady living alone is seeking a small white dog to keep her company. A young married man gives up his old English sheepdog because he takes up too much room. Today, as always, the home is full - 450 dogs either lost or kicked out by their owners, waiting to be taken away from it all.
'People ask how I can work in such a place,' says one kennel maid. 'But if I don't work here, who's going to care for them? Who's going to look after them until, hopefully, we find them a new home?'
