What is a dog shelter - a dog shelter is where you can go to find the right dog
Sadly due to canine over population in USA it has been claimed that 2-3 million dogs are put to death each year.
So please do go to a dog shelter - as every family that gets a dog from a dog shelter is one less dog that loses its life.
There is great comfort from getting a dog from a dog shelter. Do make sure you can cope with the dog and always think about your life style.
When you are taking your dog from the dog shelter you must remember that patience is the key and the first time you separate a puppy from his pack is the one time you must literally have the patients of a saint!
What dog shelter - well globally there are thousands and thousands. I recommend a visit to your local vet as they should be able to recommend a good dog shelter.
Remember tough a dog is for life and not just Christmas.
A good dog shelter accepts every animal or partner with another local shelter facility. They accept any animal without a fee.
Check the dog shelter is clean and comfortable and also a safe environment for each dog.
Dog shelters normally hold strays for around5 days and they spray or neuter all dogs at the time of adoption.
So go and visit one today.
