Shelter Dogs
I’m so sick of people that irresponsibly breed their dogs. Millions of healthy dogs are euthanized every year in the U.S. because there are just too many. Yet people just keep making more puppies, cuz puppies are cute, right? Besides…you’ll make sure to find good homes for all of your puppies…sure you will. Well guess what, for every dog you bring into the world, that’s one more dog that doesn’t get a home. One more dog that spends the rest of its life in a shelter cage with a cold cement floor, hoping, begging, pleading, that just one person will give it a chance and get it out of that terrifying place. The sad thing is that the animal shelter is their only hope. Otherwise they’d be out on the streets suffering until they die from starvation or some disease.
So, spay and neuter your pets. And if you’re thinking of getting a dog, please consider one from a shelter or rescue group. Believe it or not, there are a lot of purebred dogs that need homes. No matter what breed or mix, if you wait long enough, you’ll find one in a shelter or rescue. It will love you just as much, if not more, than the overpriced puppy you buy from some irresponsible breeder’s backyard. And please don’t even get me started on pet stores that sell puppies…if you want to know about all of that crap, Google ‘Puppy Mill’.
