March 23rd is National Puppy Day!
Love! Rescue! Adopt!
"Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole."
... Roger Carras
Who can resist a puppy? I know I can't! National Puppy Day was started 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."
“You can usually tell that a man is good if he has a dog who loves him.”
... W. Bruce Cameron
All of my dogs have been adopted, not "shopped." And without a doubt they have been very much loved! I never fail to be appalled by the thought of so many shelters in the Greater Charlotte area alone that house and foster puppies waiting for adoption. The numbers are staggering.
“Everybody should have a shelter dog. It’s good for the soul.”
... Paul Shaffer
HOW YOU CAN SUPPORT NATIONAL PUPPY DAY
- Make a monetary donation to a local shelter.
- Make a contribution of supplies to a local shelter--they will tell you what they need. And that information is also often available on-line on a shelter's website.
-
Adopt a puppy at your local shelter 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!
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!
“When the dog looks at you, the dog is not thinking what kind of a person you are. The dog is not judging you.”
... Eckhart Tolle
Puppies are the most trusting and joyous creatures on the planet.
Oh, to be more like a puppy.
