Shelter and Rescue Animals

Don't forget the Shelter and Rescue Animals!

Don't overlook your local animal shelters and the animal "rescue" organizations for finding your next pet. Mutts need love too, and honestly, the best animals I've ever had, had come from shelters. And the best part about getting an animal from a shelter is...usually they have already been spayed or neutered for you! If that's something you do to your pets anyways, that alone will save you a substantial veterinarian bill!

If your taste is more breed specific, ( you HAVE to have) a specific breed, then do some online searches for rescue organizations for that particular breed.

Our next pet will probably be a rescued greyhound. We're doing some research still, but apparently, once greyhounds racing careers are over, they make darn good pets, but keep them on a leash...you'll have a hard time catching them if they see a rabbit to chase!
