The life of rescuedogs
10 beautiful reasons why you should adopt a dog đ¶
-
Youâre Saving More Than One Life
It goes without saying that when you adopt a rescue pet, youâre saving a life, but youâre actually saving more than one. By adopting, youâre helping make space for another animal in need and helping to give them the opportunity to become beloved pets. -
Unconditional Love! What Could Be Better?
Many people worry about connecting with a rescued dog, but shelter dogs have so much love to give and they wonât ever stop giving it to you once you let them into your heart! -
Youâre Giving a Second Chance to a Deserving Animal
Beyond just helping an animal in need, youâre giving a rescue an opportunity to find their voice; to be themselves and get a second chance to become a dog beyond the walls of shelter or rescue. You truly give them the keys to start anew in a life where second chances can often be hard to come by. -
You Get a Chance to Stay Active
Maybe youâre trying to live a more active lifestyle, or maybe youâre just looking for a new adventure. Either way, a new four-legged friend gives you a reason to get outdoors more and stretch your legs! -
You Have Someone New to Shop For
Itâs always fun to spoil your pets and bringing home a new furry family member gives you a reason to do just that. You can enjoy all the retail therapy you want while making sure your new rescue dog is living in the lap of luxury. -
Youâre Fighting Back Against Cruel Breeding
Puppies purchased at pet stores almost always come from cruel breeding facilities where dogs are confined to small, filthy spaces and receive little to no veterinary care. By adopting from your local shelter or rescue, you are giving back to your community instead of helping cruel breeders profit. -
Destress and Unwind with Someone Who Will Never Judge You
Life is full of stresses, but your rescue dog is always there to listen. They wonât ever judge you or let you down. Taking some time to destress with your furry friends can help you unwind and keep you at peace. -
Increase Your Social Interactions
Getting out there with your pet can also help you make new human friends, too! You can befriend other pet parents, or even meet someone special when youâre making the rounds at your local dog park or dog-friendly cafĂ©. -
Youâll Have a Lifelong BFF
What could be better than having a lifelong friend? In your time with your rescue dog, youâll have a confidante, a pal and ultimately a beloved family member. Youâll never feel lonely, and in return neither will your shelter dog. -
Life Will Never Be Boring Again
One thing thatâs for certain, is that life with a rescue dog brings big changes in the best way! Say goodbye to predictable nights and your boring routine and say hello to a new lease on life. Your new pet will keep life exciting, fresh and full of love.
October is Adopt a Shelter Dog Month, and as we honor this month, we encourage everyone to open their minds and hearts to shelter dogs in need. Even if you are unable to officially adopt, there may be something you can do at your local shelter or rescue to help animals in need.
