In light of the upcoming fall season and subsequent holidays, if looking for a new furry friend, please consider checking out your local animal shelter or rescue.
If a new friend isn't on the horizon, but the desire to donate to a good cause is, then please consider donating to a local shelter.
Every time rescue is asked to take an owner surrender- we have to somehow make room on our little raft for that dog. When an owner says stuff like “I don’t have time to give them the best life” or “I have to move” or “they have too much anxiety” it really falls flat because that means if we bring them on the raft, another dog out there in the freezing water gets to die.
Every day in rescue we adjudicate life and death by gate keeping who can get on the boat.
Rescues and shelters are the tiny rescue boats.
The ship is our community at large.
The iceberg is comprised of puppy mills, careless owners, backyard breeders, and a$$hats who won’t spay/neuter.
