“The puppies understood that they have an assignment, I believe, and that assignment was to bond with Sulaiman,” said Anderson. “Which they did, and, in turn, Sulaiman loved them.”
She said she was cleaning the dogs’ enclosure on Jan. 28 when she tied them to the front porch for a few minutes.
“I opened the door. The puppies were gone. The food was still there,” said Anderson.
