Adopt a Less Adoptable Pet Day

We aren't all perfect--you humans aren't either! Some dogs that end up in shelters have some problems that make them harder to place in forever homes. But these aren't problems that make them bad pets, they just might not live up to your image of the perfect pet. But these pets often have compelling stories that make adoption that much more rewarding.

Some may have a disability--but if you have been following my blog at all you know that disabled dogs have a lot to give back! Some are blind or deaf, but these things can be overcome with some patience. Some have treatable diseases that the rescue may pay for if you take the pet into your home. Did you know that black dogs are often difficult to place? Read my earlier post about that here. Some are just seniors, and there is nothing wrong with that!

That is why today, August 12 is "Adopt a Less Adoptable Pet Day."
