#LightForPets
Created to shed a light and light a candle for the MILLIONS of companion animals that lose their lives every year in shelters.....not for behavior issues or medical issues....for lack of homes. That's it - lack of space and adoptions.
We hope some day that companion animals stand a better chance in what is called a "shelter" system. We hope one day that #AdoptDontShop will be a phrase that is truly understood and utilized by everyone out there seeking a pet. We hope one day shelter workers won't have to bear the burden of killing thousands of animals as part of their job....and know that we will never blame the people have to do that job - blame the system or whatever, but not those that have to do it every day to stay employed.
Don't get us wrong - we know there are people who prefer specific breeds and there are responsible breeders. But there are also people who still believe that pets "need" to have a litter before being spayed. There are people that think it is "unmanly" to neuter their dogs. There are people breeding animals for money, not to further the breed.
This is about raising awareness about lives lost in a system that should be saving them....
