I don't think this source is actually a real news source, from what I've seen online it's a satirical kind of website. However, I think there are some people posting on twitter actually claiming this as a fact, which is why it is so important to dig into the background of the websites. I tried to look up other sources to see if this may be true, or if they got new dogs at all, but I haven't found anything related to this claim.

This is a satirical news source and their articles cannot be taken as strict fact. There are no other news sources stating this claim.

Not sure if this is a valid source although I found one other link that writes about this topics, Im concerned that there isn't enough sources to prove this claim is true.

This article is from the Onion, a satirical news website. The claim is not meant to be taken seriously.
