About 5 years ago a pre-weaned puppy was found on the grounds of the community center of our housing development. A family took the pup in temporarily and asked the community center staff to ask around for a permanent home. I was there at the time and said I would think about it. Two weeks later I was picking up my daughter from their after school program and they asked me if I had made my decision. I really hadn't, and said I still needed to check with my wife. (She had never owned a dog, and I wasn't sure how she'd feel.) They said that if no-one would take him that he was going to the pound the next day.
I figured I could at least buy him some time, so I agreed to take him home. When the temporary owner gave him to me he had a vet statement where he was named "Pup-Pup".
