Adopt a Pet: It's Worth It!

Adopt a Pet: It's Worth It! Perhaps you are considering putting down a $500 deposit for a Labradoodle or a yet to be born Jack Russell Terrier. Dogs are great, and lots of fun. But, why buy from a breeder when there are so many wonderful dogs available for adoption throughout the nation?

The Escondido Humane Society cares for stray, surrendered, abused, neglected and abandoned companion animals of North San Diego County, providing a safe haven and placement into permanent, loving homes. They advocate for the prevention of animal abuse, neglect and homelessness by teaching compassion, respect, responsible ownership and caring treatment for all living creatures and for the importance of spay/neuter in the prevention of pet overpopulation.

Over the course of the next month, the Escondido Humane Society will be hosting many wonderful adoption events:

August 24: Monthly dog adoption outreach at Petco Escondido, 1000 W. Valley Parkway. Meet EHS adoptable dogs, and visit with adoptable cats and bunnies that are available on-site, from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
August 29: Rancho Bernardo Jamboree at Kahoots, 11965 Bernardo Plaza Drive. Meet our adoptable dogs, and be treated to music and barbecue!
September 3: Meet foster dogs and dogs residing at EHS on the first Thursday of the month at Dogtopia of San Marcos, 925 W. San Marcos Blvd. Time TBA.
September 5: Meet our adoptable dogs and learn about Escondido Humane Society programs at the Rancho Family YMCA Open House Celebration from noon to 3 p.m., 9410 Fairgrove Lane, San Diego.
September 11-13: Meet some of our adoptable dogs and visit with cats who are available on-site during the PetsMart Adoption Event. Times TBA; 415 N. Escondido Blvd., Escondido

Someone has a thing for this little doggie . . . he's been seen in another post just recently.

We adopted a Tibent Terrier/LaPhosa mix and he is the light of our life! It is so worth saving a life.

That little dog is adorable. I am a huge proponet of adopting animals. As I type this I have many 4 legged furry friends laying next to me and at my feet. They all came from the animal shelters- they make the best pets.

Yes, adopt a pet......any pet. Own a pet. It's good for you. We have a 14 year old long hair dachsund, "Pasha", our little old lady of the house. There is not a day that goes by that I don't feel blessed by the pleasure that she brings. What unconditional love!

All our pets have been adopted - and so is our youngest child. When we adopted a little kitten for her, she named him "Lucky." I think her dad and I are the lucky ones.

We have adopted pets in the past.. both of our current pets, a dog "Bernie" was adopted from dog pound in Broken Bow and our kitten, "CuCu" had been abandoned, so she now lives with us.
