Dogs are one of the most popular & well-known pets in the world. You may already have known that. If you did, then think about this: Why are there so many dogs left in shelters if apparently, they are one of the most loved pets in the world? Next time you go to a shelter, don't just think about the cute, little puppies, go take a look in the older dog section. There can be some pretty awesome dogs! People sometimes think that shelter dogs are "dirty" or "smelly" but really, the best dogs can come from shelters! They all have gotten the care that they need, and often those dogs have been abandoned, thrown away, or have been in other very tough situations, they need a loving owner, and you could be their perfect match. Remember: Adopt don't Shop.
