RED CARPET ROXY’S “RED ALERT” OF THE WEEK-PET ADOPTION

Thousands of healthy, adoptable animals in shelters across the US are put to sleep everyday. The shelters are extremely overcrowded and cannot hold that many animals at one time. And this time of year is an especially hard time as the shelters are over capacity with dogs being turned in during the peak of summer. The reasons include everything like moving, summer travel, no time, and a host of other excuses. As a result, “owner surrendered” pets are usually the first ones to get euthanized.

And if you are breed particular, all you have to do is go to www.Petfinder.com or Adoptapet.com to locate a reputable breed specific rescue group in your area. If you find a pet that you love who happens to be out of your area, always ask the shelter or rescue group about possible pet transportation to your area. As a person who has had rescued animals my whole life, I can say, the rewards are endless and you are truly saving a life.
