You can make a difference.

Every year, 2.7 million dogs and cats are euthanized in the United States. Too many pets come into shelters - and that’s because too few people understand the responsibility of caring for them.

Common reasons people abandon their pets

Unexpected Moving Setbacks

When their owners choose to move, pets are often left to the wayside - especially if the expenses required to own them climb too high.

Unplanned Litters

Pets can sometimes experience unexpected pregnancy, and with that a sudden increase in number of owned pets - as well as expenses.

Life-Altering Divorce

With divorce rates on the rise, pets are bearing the brunt of broken marriages. With no place to go, pets are left unloved.

Lack of Time and Finances

Pets require time and money - and when we don’t take this into consideration, pets end up in shelters, rescues, or simply abandoned.

Loss of Employment

Employment concerns loom over us humans daily, but it has lasting impacts on our furry friends when loss of employment leads to abandonment.
