#**ADOPT, DON'T SHOP** If you have watched my stream, you know I'm very passionate about animals and animal welfare. I know many of you have adopted or rescued pets which is wonderful! A lot of people don't understand when a pet is purchased, especially from a pet store, it came from a puppy mill or backyard breeder. Puppy mills are the scourge of the Earth and need to be completely outlawed. Let's end the horrible abuse, neglect, and inbreeding that dogs receive in puppy mills. Since that will not happen soon enough there are things **YOU** can do to help right now. + **Donate to your local shelter.** Most are non-profit and depend on donations to keep their doors open. + **Adopt an animal from a shelter.** *Rescuing one animal will not change the world, but for that animal the world will change forever.* A rescued animal, especially one that has known abuse, will be eternally grateful to you. The love is real. + **Volunteer at your local shelter.** Most animal shelters are non-profit and need helping hands to keep their doors open. The big bonus is you get to see all the doggies and kitties. Jas and I regularly donate and volunteer at our local shelter, which is a kill shelter. We used to foster, but we had to stop because I would have 50 dogs now. Three of our dogs have been rescues. We take this very seriously and hope we can make even a tiny difference by spreading the word. And remember, even if you want a specific breed, there are so many breed specific rescues out there. The link is to PetSmart Charities, but there are so many good national organizations if you decide to donate. Jason and I have found a local small dog rescue that is great and do wonderful things. Just look around and see what's available in your area. Always **SPAY AND NEUTER** your pets! This will cut down on the amount of unwanted animals in shelters.
