Hello Kevin & Monica,

Thank you for spreading the word about October being Adopt A Shelter Dog Month.  Hoping a lot of shelter dogs find new homes in Missoula & across our country during the month of October. Again, thank you for your post!  Have a great weekend!

Kevin & Monica, I hope many of these animals find wonderful homes.  I can't go in a shelter--I always come away with another dog :)
