Pet Adoption Resources

According to a 1997 study by the American Humane Association, which has been
 protecting animals from cruelty, abuse and neglect for 130 years: 

  • Roughly 64% of the total number of animals that entered shelters were euthanized.
  • 56% of dogs and 71% of cats that enter animal shelters are euthanized. More cats are euthanized than dogs because they are more likely to enter a shelter without any owner identification.
  • Only 15% of dogs and 2% of cats that enter animal shelters are reunited with their owners.
  • Only 25% of dogs and 24% of cats that enter animal shelters are adopted.
  • It is widely accepted that 9.6 million animals are euthanized annually in the United States.

Please help change these statistics!  Consider opening your home to a dog or cat in need through adoption.  You will gain a true companion with lots of love and never ending devotion, and you’ll be saving a life in the process!   

If you've never adopted, you don’t know what you are missing!

“Life is as dear to a mute creature as it is to man.  Just as each one of us wants happiness and fear pain, just as each one of us wants to live and not die, so do all other creatures.”  -- Dalai Lama
