Animal Shelters For Adopting Puppies And Dogs

Are you interested in adopting puppies or adopting dogs? Are you searching for an animal shelter to change a dog’s life?  

Thousands of dogs are euthanized each day in the U.S. - and not because of anything they did, but rather because there just isn’t enough space. More and more no-kill shelters may be popping up across the country, but, unfortunately, overcrowding is still a huge issue.  

Because of the overcrowding, many dogs in shelters need homes. Who knows, maybe that shelter could be the very place you find your best friend and most loyal companion. So, let's find you one!

Benefits of Adopting Dogs

If you are interested in adopting a puppy or a dog, then you are probably already aware that they come with a long list of benefits. But, just in case you are on the fence about your pet adoption, we thought we’d sway you a little more toward the side of bringing home the pup. So, here it goes.  

Adopted dogs will:  

• Give you unconditional love.  
• Be the most excited to see you walk through the door after a long day at the office.  
• Already be spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and often microchipped.
• Make you feel good about giving a pup a second chance at a really good life.  
• Also, make you feel good about not supporting breeders and puppy mills.
• Make space in the shelter for another pup in need.  
• Reduce your stress and boost your enjoyment of life.

And most of all, adopted dogs will call you their best friend for the rest of their life.  

The Best Animal Shelters

When it comes to adopting puppies and adopting dogs, you want to stay away from breeders and turn to animal shelters instead. Animal shelters are located all throughout the United States and house dogs looking for their furever homes. Your home could be the perfect place.  

With so many animal shelters, how do you choose?  

There are well-known animal shelters, such as The Humane Society, that are found in nearly every major city in the country. While these may be hit or miss in their practices, they are respected shelters for the most part.  

The ASPCA lists shelters on its website, linking you with local animal shelters and other resources in your area. So whether you are in Phoenix, AZ, Dallas, TX, Denver, CO, Atlanta, GA, or somewhere entirely different, you will have a connection to reputable shelters.  

Keep in mind that there are often smaller, non-profit shelters found in local areas, too - especially in bigger cities. These can be great resources for adopting dogs. Do an online search, ask around for recommendations, and even talk to a local vet to find the best option.  

Whatever you do, don’t be afraid to ask questions about the dog and the shelter’s practices before you make your decision. You always want to be sure that you are engaging with someone who has the dog’s best interest at heart.
