Humane Society of Broward County-Feed Homeless Pets

Humane Society of Broward County-Feed Homeless Pets

4 months ago I had to sadly had to put my dog to sleep. We had a wonderful 17yrs together and I'll always cherish the times we had. A few weeks after his passing.....I decided to take the food we had left over and donate it to the Humane Society of Broward County.

Early on the day of New Years Eve....my family and I decided to take another trip over to the animal shelter to donate more food but this time it wasn't the food leftover from my dog....we purchased it. Actually...when the pet store heard that we were donating all the food... they were kind enough to also give us a big bag of sample food to take with us.

Since my family and I were there for the visit..... we decided to go look at what dogs they had available to adopt.

Adopting a rescued pet is a great thing for both the pet and the new owner. We looked around and went through all 4 kennels and I'll have to admit that it was hard for me to see so many dogs that were left abandoned.

Even if we don't know how or why they ended up in the shelter...the mystery can be solved if you look them in the eye because they'll tell you.

There were a few really cute ones that my daughter and wife fell in love with but they were already adopted. I'm still not ready to take on another just yet but we were still happy to know that the majority of the dogs that were in the shelter were going to have new homes for 2009.

Right now it's too soon for me to take in another pet at the moment but if you know anyone who would be interested....you should send them down to the Humane Society of Broward County.

If I ever decided to get another dog....you can be sure I'll be looking to adopt it at the Humane Society.

Even if you aren't looking to adopt a pet...why not at least donate some food to keep the homeless from being hungry......go there and help the cause today.

Great story Neal and wonderfully taken photos. You'll be ready for a new pet at the right time. Happy New Year to you and your family.

When we were looking for a dog we went to the Humane Society first. The only one we saw that would even come close to what we wanted was a HUGE bulldog. Not the standard one...it was HUGE. But he was such a big baby but we don't have room for a big dog. So we 'rescued' our Shadow from a huge family that tormented her. It took her a long time to trust us.

Sorry for your loss. I have two of my own. Pounds dogs are the best. Here maybe this will help you decide sooner.

Neal, I was hoping I would see at the bottom a new pup you had gotten. Still not time, huh? I know it would help you and your family. Have a great new year.

Neal, it's so hard to go into a shelter without coming home with (another, in my case) pet. Good for you for supporting yours.

Neal you are a realy softy. That is a nice thing to do to start of the new year.

Lily and Molly are both from an animal shelter in the area. I think pets from animal shelters make the very best pets because they appreciate being rescued.

Neal- I'm so sorry about the loss of your friend... What a terrific thing to do... You my friend are a very classy guy!

Happy New Year

Neal...

Although I am a cat person, they have all been rescued from the local shelter, and they are a great joy to us. There are so many animals that need good homes, and they can add so much to enrich our lives!

We lost our beloved Annie almost one year ago today. I'm still not ready (nor sure if I ever will be) to adopt another 4 legged family member, but I do not forget the animal shelters. Like you, it warms my heart to take much needed goods to them.

What they do is amazing isn't it? And it's all from the heart...

Neal - I know you are still grieving the lost of your beloved dog but it is only a matter of time before you take one of those pups home, for your heart is just too big my friend. I will be looking for your update letting us know you have adopted a new dog.

This is a great post Neal. When the time is right, you'll get your dog. In the meantime, good job supporting the local Humane Society. Happy New Year!

Neal, I'm so sorry to hear about your dog. I remember well the post you wrote about your concerns and I shared a few months later when I lost my 19 year old cat. When the time is right you will save one very lucky puppy! Happy New Year.

Neal- I had never thought to donate food to the Humane Society...thank you. And as we now know this trip may have helped you as it wass only a couple days before Roxy became a part of your family :)
