Yes, I AM the mother of The Charleston Gang… but don’t lump me in with those trouble makers, those rag-a-muffins, those saps!  It’s just baloney, I tell ya!  I am a red, smooth-coated, 6 year old dame who my foster family says is just the cat’s meow—that I say, “AND HOW!” Now that I am done with this litter of puppies, the bank’s closed, I tell ya—and couldn’t be more ready to put on my glad rags and head on out to the speakeasy—or at least to a new home.  I’ll be on the level with ya, I get all goofy about hugs and kisses, ya know, I just can’t get enough!  My ideal future involves a new Daddy/Jane/Person who will lavish me with love and cuddles.  I am simply ducky with kids and other dogs, but I can’t speak for those furballs known as “cats”.  My foster people think I get the heebie-jeebies about going outside to potty, but I tell ya, I was framed!  Ok, fine, I’ll level with ya, it’s not that there’s nobody home, I just haven’t figured it out yet.  I do pretty well when left alone and I swear I haven’t destroyed anything—I leave that my crazy puppies!  Look, all I want is a swell home with someone to love me… I deserve it after everything I’ve been through!  Do you think you could be the ones to hold me, cuddle me, and kiss me forever?

Translation:

Yes, I AM the mother of The Charleston Gang… but don’t think I am like those troublemaker puppies!  It’s just not true.  I am a red, smooth-coated, 6 year old female who my foster family says is just great—I agree!  Now that I am done with this litter of puppies, I am so happy to be done having puppies!  I can’t wait to pack up my stuff and find myself a new place to live.  I will be honest with you, I love hugs and kisses and I can’t get enough of them!  My ideal future involves a man/woman/person who will lavish me with love and cuddles.  I am great with kids and other dogs, but my foster family isn’t real sure how I am with cats since they do not have one.  My foster family thinks that maybe I am afraid to be outside alone to go potty, but it is all lies!  Ok, fine, I’ll be honest, I am not dumb, I just haven’t figured out the doggie door yet.  I do pretty well when left alone and I have not destroyed anything… I let my puppies do that.  All I want is a nice home with someone to love me—I deserve it after all I have been through.  Do you think you could be the ones to hold me, cuddle me, and kiss me forever?
