Dog of the Month
Marley
Marley is a 3 year old hound/chow mix around 60 pounds.
He is a sweet boy who enjoys the company of other dogs but needs a quiet home,slowly being introduced to new people. He prefers a home without kids.
He is a very smart boy and is perfect when leashed. He knows all commands. He is house and crate trained. He absolutely loves to play with toys and getting attention from humans or dogs.
Education
The real problem isn't the dogs
With over 3 million dogs a year needlessly euthanized, we know the real problem isn't the dogs . . . it's the people!
If people could just follow the simple basic rules of responsible pet ownership -spay/neuter, vaccinate, understand the commitment of owning a pet before taking one, understand that a pet is a member of your family.
Pets are not disposable!
A very wise man once said, "If we don't educate our young people, we will surely pay a high price in the future." In this case, it is the innocent animals that are paying the high price. We know that rescue and rehome is just a bandaid on the real problem.
