Dose
Puppies putting N.Y. on high alert?
FROM STAFF AND WIRE REPORTS
ACortlandt, N.Y., woman advertised the adoption of four rat terrier pups by
labeling them “terrorists” in a classified ad. Paula Young, director of Mount
Vernon’s animal shelter, ordered the two-week, three-line ad that reads,
■Twin Rat Terrorists; 11 months, adorable, full of fun” in The Journal News
after she saved the pups from euthanization in New York City last month.
Young said she was being honest in her description, as the dogs have fierce hunt
ing instincts. Coming from a military family, Young said she did not think the word
“terrorist” would offend anyone. Only one dog has been adopted thus far.
NOTED. Avril Lavigne issued a statement
apologizing for her behavior with the paparazzi
in response to reports that she spat at photogra
phers in two different incidents last week.
However, the singer’s apology indicated she
“meant no offense” to her fans, not the paparaz
zi, she said.
Lavigne said “it’s trying at best dealing with
their insistent intrusions.”
