4 The Love Of Animals

MAY 14, 2013

No dog is happier to be rescued. She put a dog bed outside with some food and water, and I’d see her checking on me about every five minutes. We dogs are wired by nature to be humans’ companions. It’s the result of thousands of years of breeding. But there’s a special bond between a dog and its human rescuer.

Some people are seeking purebred animals or puppies and think these are not available in shelters. In fact, nearly a quarter of all animals in shelters are purebred. Often someone buys an expensive purebred animal and then attempts to breed that animal to recoup their money. Thanks to Adopt-A-Pet.com for these great tips!

Save $$: Up to $500 or more depending on animal and breed. Save the Planet: Adopting a shelter pet not only saves a life, but it reduces demand for purebred animals, which are more likely to have medical problems due to genetic abnormalities. Instead of buying toys, you can delight dogs and cats with stuff you already own.
