It's Adopt a Less-Adoptable-Pet week.

What makes a pet less adoptable?

Age: Seniors are often overlooked due to worries about health and longevity.
Appearance: Black dogs and cats are often less adoptable solely based on their coat color. Bully breeds like pitbulls are also more to spend extra time in a shelter.
Special Needs: Animals that are missing limbs or have chronic medical conditions like allergies are often less likely to be adopted because of the belief that they may have more medical bills or require extra work.

If you're in the market for a new family member to add to your family decide if any of these things are a deal breaker. If not, consider a look at some of the amazing pets that may have been overlooked by others.

Meet Bernard. About 2 years ago he was diagnosed with Chronic Kidney Disease. The treatment? Fluid therapy. It required his humans to give him a bolus of fluids every few days.
As it turns out, Bernard doesn't like to be held still for long enough to give the fluids. So his mom discovered the EZ I.V. Harness. It's a simple strap that holds a needle in place allowing him to move around without restraint while receiving his fluids. It's drastically reduced the stress to both Bernard and his humans and has undoubtedly extended his life.

If you're interested in the EZ I.V. Harness, check them out at EZ I.V. Harness.
