In this series, the mission of a team of fearless dogs is to find homes for puppies in need. Their motto is "A pup for every person and a person for every pup." The Pound Puppies appear to be "average dogs" keeping the humans who are running Shelter 17 in the dark while helping "dog-kind" find loving families. Once you're a Pound Puppy, you're always a Pound Puppy.
