I get the same output if I change the class name:

use strict;
use warnings;
use 5.010;

{package Dog;
    sub new {
        my $class = shift;
        bless {}, $class;
    }
    
    sub DESTROY {
        my $self = shift;
        say "destroy";
        
        $self->SUPER::DESTROY;
    }
}


my $d = Dog->new;

--output:--
destroy
        (in cleanup) Can't locate object method "DESTROY" via package 
+"Dog" at perl2.pl line 16.

I ran the program like this:

C:\Users\Me\Documents>perl perl2.pl

I'll follow JavaFan's instructions--rather than Randall Scwhartz's.
