Today is “Adopt-a-Less Adoptable Pet Day” which was created by Petfinder.com to recognize that while all homeless pets need homes, there are pets who have a much harder time finding a loving, permanent home due to special needs.
Petfinder.com took a survey and found that the most needy pets are senior pets, special needs pets, fighting breeds, and the big, black syndrome- black dogs.
If you give them a chance, they’re just as beautiful and lovely as the cute little puppies. Plus, they deserve to be happy!
Petfinder.com made a small list of why they love “special” pets:
-Older pets are mellower – you don’t have to worry about your lamp getting knocked over!
-Physically challenged pets are often unaffected by their handicap – but you still look like a hero!
-With “bad reputation” breeds, you get the chance to prove people wrong with your great dog!
-Dark-furred pets make it easy to accessorize – black goes with everything!
-Pets with behavioral issues allow you to form a tight bond as you overcome obstacles together!
-Big dogs are easier to find when it’s time to go to the vet!
Every dog deserves a chance at love, so if you’re going to get a pet, please adopt a less adoptable one.
