Why Mighty Mutts Is Popular
by CATE

Yesterday grown ups and kids voted in the fourth grade class’s mock election. People were supposed to vote for an organization and who should be the president. A lot of kids voted for an organization called Mighty Mutts, which is an animal adoption place. Mighty Mutts helps lost and abandoned animals find a good home. Mighty Mutts makes sure the animals they have and they find are healthy and strong. When they find them they make names for them such as Brownie, Miss Pepper, Coco and Pugsley.

Some people give their dogs and cats to Mighty Mutts because they can’t take care of them. I think many kids voted for Mighty Mutts because many kids like animals and on the ballot sheet they put a graphic picture of a superhero cat and dog, so I think that may have sucked them into voting for Mighty Mutts.
