Did you know?

Approximately 6.5 million companion animals enter U.S. animal shelters every year, highlighting the importance of adoption to save lives.

American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA)

Adopting a pet from a shelter can save you hundreds of dollars in initial veterinary care since many are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.

Petfinder

Shelter pets often have mixed breeds which can lead to healthier animals with fewer genetic disorders compared to some purebreds.

Humane Society of the United States

Pets from shelters can help reduce stress, anxiety, and depression, contributing positively to your mental health.

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)

By adopting, you help reduce the demand for puppy mills and commercial breeding facilities that often prioritize profit over animal welfare.

ASPCA

Many shelter animals are already trained and socialized, making the transition to a new home smoother for both pet and owner.
