Savannah Latham happened to be volunteering at the Tipton Animal Shelter the day that the animal control truck arrived in late November. 

She had no idea of the surprise that was coming next. 

As the doors opened to the truck, out came seven chihuahua-mix puppies, with looks so adorable that Latham couldn’t help but fall in love. 


Grizzlies Insider: Which current team do Memphis fans dislike the most?


“Of course, I’m a dog lover, so no matter what dog I see, I always say, ‘Awww, they are so cute!’” Savannah Latham said. “But, (dogs) are just something that my husband and I have a passion for. We knew immediately we could get those dogs adopted if we just try and post them on our social media page.”

No doubt. Come on, just look at them!
