It's National Puppy Day today! Who can resist a puppy? I know I can't! National Puppy Day was started 12 years ago in 2006 by Colleen Paige to bring awareness about homeless puppies in need of a caring and safe homes, as well as to make the public more aware of the horrors of pupp
y mills. The official slogan of National Puppy Day is "Love. Rescue. Adopt."
All of our dogs have been adopted, not "shopped." And without a doubt they have been very much loved! Each month when I go to the Humane Society of York County to deliver food and supplies, I see first-hand just how many of these helpless creatures need good and loving homes. I never fail to be appalled by the thought of so many shelters in the Charlotte metro area alone that house and foster puppies waiting for adoption. The numbers are staggering.
Thing you can do to support National Puppy Day. You can make a monetary contribution to a local shelter. You can make a contribution of supplies to a local shelter--they will tell you what they need. You can go and adopt a puppy and give it a great home and lots of love. The love you give will be returned in spades! These animals just somehow know you are their rescuer and love you forever for it! The National Puppy Day website provides 50 Ways to Celebrate National Puppy Day!
It's National Puppy Day today... don't let the day pass without doing something nice in support of this cause! You'll be glad you did! (By the way, if you're in the process of buying a house think about how much a loving puppy will help turn that house into a real home!)
Puppies are the most trusting and joyous creatures on the planet.
Oh, to be more like a puppy.
