This is Deke. His owner gave him up because she was getting a divorce. He was found at Animal Control. He is now very happy to live with a young girl and her other dog. |
There are many places to find dogs that need homes. Here are a few:
| At the Department of Animal Control, you'll find homeless dogs. You will find mixed breed dogs and purebred dogs here. This place is sometimes called the Animal Shelter. There is usually a fee (cost for the dog) that helps pay for the medical care received while the dog was at the shelter. The dogs are usually spayed or neutered before they go to their new homes. |

The Humane Society has a veterinarian who checks on the dogs to make sure they are healthy. Usually the dogs will be spayed or neutered before they are adopted. There is usually a fee (cost for the dog) that helps pay for the medical care received while the dog was at the Humane Society. There are mixed breed dogs and purebred dogs here and adults as well as puppies. |
Here is what one of our visitors wrote about her rescue dog: Every day I always wanted a dog. I would look in the paper but I never found what I wanted. Then my mom's friend said she had a Shih-Tzu turned in, my dream dog for 4 years! I was so excited. On Saturday we went to PetSmart and there was a small , skinny dog weighing 11 pounds. I learned that her previous owners had been breeding her since she was 6 months old and would breed her every 6 months! Lucy is now a healthy 20 pound Shih -tzu. Lucy is 3 years is old, that's how old she was when we rescued her. She loves belly rubs. She'll just roll over and accept you to rub her belly and when you stop she'll pat you with her paws. Her favorite foods are practically anything. She'll eat pasta and anything you give her! Written by Alea, USA |
