4 The Love Of Animals

MARCH 9, 2012

Choosing to adopt a dog rather than get one at the pet store (or what some like to refer to as “puppy mill”) is a beautiful thing—essentially you are saving a poor pup from euthanasia and you’re providing a an animal with a good home. Note: if your pet is on this list, no amount of pet deposit will compensate.

I've written about my ambivalence regarding "pet" ownership/guardianship/insert-whatever-term-you're-comfortable-with, and also about my strong belief in helping individuals, but I don't recall addressing whether the having of pets is not vegan. Do you agree with that?

Aside from the breed’s abuses, one finds that adopting out this breed is highly difficult. However, any breed of dog that has been abused, neglected, or homeless may be aggressive to humans or other dogs. It may feel threatened, and animals that feel threatened instinctually protect themselves.

When they opened the door I expected to see a concerned owner relieved to see his pet. He’s currently residing with a loving foster family but the good news is he has just been adopted to a family in Canada!! They help us rescue dogs in need, and care for those without a voice who are injured, abused and neglected.
