Many shelters have puppies/kittens, pure bred dogs/cats and other lovable critters. Go adopt your BFF today!

Buckle up for some hard truths.

Shelters across the US are in crisis. Many are so full they’ve had to stop taking animals.

This is not a shelter problem. It’s a community problem.

FACTS:
Animals are being surrendered and abandoned faster than they’re adopted.
They’re being bred faster than we can save them.
They’re being given up on faster than we can rehome them.

If your local shelter is overflowing or forced to euthanize for space, it isn’t because they don’t care. It’s because the community has to do better.

What can help?

✔ Education about behavior, socialization, dog body language, effective training methods and bite prevention
✔ Resources for families adding babies/kids to homes with dogs
✔ Pet food pantries & community support
✔ Low-cost spay/neuter, microchipping & TNR programs
✔ More fosters, adopters & volunteers
✔ Honest conversations about future care if pets outlive us
❌ Less backyard breeding and puppy mills
❌ Less housing breed restrictions
❌ Less irresponsible, fly by night "rescues"
❌ Less aversive trainers making behavior issues worse by suppressing communication and body language

We don’t need to blame shelters. We need to step up as communities.

I had the pleasure of taking Porsha out of the Anne Arundel County animal shelter today for their Paws Around Town program.

What a (big) doll baby! Porsha is a happy, friendly and affectionate girl. It was challenging getting photos because she didn’t want me to take my hands off of her! ❤️ She liked to rest her head or the top half of her body in my lap. 😊 She walks well on leash (if I can walk this 65lb dog, you shouldn’t have a problem.) She’s responsive to sit, wait, leave it and let’s go. She loves praise, treats and pets.

Don’t delay, go meet Porsha today and bring home your new BFF!

I consider myself a doggie mama. What about you? 😁

I have never felt right calling myself a "pet owner." I'm not a master. I'm a caregiver and guardian -- here to protect and love.
Kahu sounds about right 💚

Not all growls are the same, and some are playful.

Why is it acceptable to condone violence to dogs, but controversial to condone violence to dogs when “training”?
