In Mutts We Trust

Every year, between 7-11 Million animals will end up in shelters throughout the United States. Less than 50% of those animals will get to a rescue or get adopted. THINK before you drop your animal off at a shelter. Shelters are overcrowded, understaffed, and under funded. An animal is a lifetime commitment. Animals want for so little, and only want for love. They ask for so very little in return. So the next time you're thinking of getting rid of your pet, think first. It may not make it out of the shelter. It would be tragic for your pet to die alone and afraid in shelter due to no fault of it's own.
