For about the past year, I’ve been devoting Sundays to rescue dogs throughout the country. Working with the shelters and rescues listed on PetFinder’s Shelter Center, I’ve chosen one organization from each state and featured one of their adoptable dogs. I have no idea whether or not any of these featured dogs have since been adopted, but I figure the more people who see these dogs, the better odds they have. Although only one of the dogs in my house is a rescue, I feel like I have an obligation to help where I can.
Since I can’t measure the posts in terms of adoption (unless some of you want to write in & tell your adoption stories!), I’d like to know if you are enjoying reading about these rescued dogs. Should I go back through the list of states another time?
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
I, for one, would hope that you continue to feature those adoptable dogs because increased exposure can only expedite their possibility for adoption. I’d even ask that you devote at least one or two more days each week on this endeavor but that would be too presumptuous of me.
A few friends of mine and I got together and decided to adopt rescue dogs several years ago. We started our mission by looking through blogs just like yours. I am willing to bet that we are not the only ones who end up adopting animals that have been displayed online.
