If you do web searches or shop online, you can now donate to animal welfare organizations by doing the same thing, with a minor adjustment or two. And with no money out of your pocket. Let me show you how simple and profitable this can be.

If you walked into a shelter and were proposed three dogs, which would you take home? The wriggling yellow puppy? The two-year-old black pit mix? Or the graying older dog splattered with brown?

Puppies are warm and cuddly and everyone wants to hold, touch and smell them. But they demand time, patience and training to become family members and companions. Not everyone has the time it takes to raise a puppy, so why not think about adopting a senior dog?

A new wave in No-Kill animal rescue shelters is emerging, saving lost and discarded pets from the worst fate imaginable – death.

This is a note to anyone who has ever had a litter of kittens and given them away as “Free to Good Home”. Moreover it is a warning for those in the future, to reconsider against this as a way of getting rid of your kittens. Do not read this unless you are ready for some hard facts.

The relationship between dogs and senior citizens is reciprocal – a two-way street – with good things flowing in both directions.

For whatever reason you cannot keep your pet and need to get rid of it. Sadly many people go about this in the wrong way. Here are the best options.

A dog is a Lifetime Commitment, NOT something to buy on a whim. Make the right choice the first time.
