OP And it was the resonance of the usage Jackie pointed out that made me wonder at the particular usage I was asking about in my original question. It almost seems as though the people selling the puppies were tired of tripping over them so they had to get them out of the house. A quick google, however, shows that it is a common usage for the raising of cats and dogs. I think there was even a rabbit in there amongst the first twenty hits.
