I found my dog at a local animal shelter. It is a place where lost or abandoned pets are taken care of.
Did you visit different animal shelters to find the perfect one? You have to go into an open mind when going to a shelter.
Yes, I visited several no-kill shelters before finding the one that had my dog. The no-kill shelters do not euthanize animals.
It's a shame that kill shelters even exist.
I agree. No-kill shelters ask for more volunteers to help in order to keep costs at a minimum. I wish every shelter was like that.
I know they also take donations such as food and bedding for the animals on a regular basis.
Yes, and a frequent benchmark is to keep 90% of animals alive. Some may be old or too injured to survive.
