TODAY IS THE DAY TO GET OUT AND VISIT YOUR LOCAL SHELTER BECAUSE IT'S NATIONAL ADOPT A SHELTER PET DAY!!! THE AMERICAN HUMANE SOCIETY CREATED THIS HOLIDAY IN 1981, TO RAISE AWARENESS OF DOGS STUCK IN SHELTERS. BUT EVENTUALLY PET OWNERS WANTED THIS DAY TO INCLUDE EVERY PET IN A SHELTER. SO NATIONAL ADOPT A SHELTER PET DAY WAS BORN!
DID YOU KNOW THAT IT IS ESTIMATED THAT 6.5 MILLION ANIMALS GO INTO ANIMAL SHELTERS IN THE U.S. EVERY YEAR. DID YOU KNOW OF THE 6.5 MILLION ANIMALS, 3.3 MILLION ARE DOGS AND 3.2 MILLION ARE CATS. SADLY DUE TO A SHORTAGE OF PET SHELTERS ACROSS OUR COUNTRY OVER 1.5 MILLION ANIMALS ARE EUTHANIZED EVERY YEAR OF WHICH 860,000 ARE CATS AND 670,000 ARE DOGS.
SO, PLEASE GET OUT AND SAVE A LIFE. THE FOLLOWING QUOTES SAYS IT ALL!
"THE GREATNESS OF A NATION AND ITS MORAL PROGRESS CAN BE JUDGED BY THE WAY ITS ANIMALS ARE TREATED" ~ GANDHI
THANK YOU!
CHEWY MAN AND FAMILY 🐶
