Save a Shelter Dog

Every year in America, over 4 million dogs are killed because no one chose to love them and give them a home. Too many of these are very adoptable, friendly dogs, just waiting for someone to care about them. I encourage everyone who reads this blog to consider adopting a shelter dog when you're ready for a new best friend.

"Today, together with a growing appreciation of the importance of Human rights there is a greater awareness worldwide of the need for the protection not only of the environment, but also of animals and their rights. Where there is a mind, there are feelings such as pain, pleasure and joy. No sentient being wants pain, instead all want happiness. Since we all share these feelings at some basic level, we as rational human beings have an obligation to contribute in whatever way we can to the happiness of other species and try our best to relieve their fears and sufferings."
-His Holiness the Dalai Lama
