The truth about shelter animals
They have a history. Every animal does. Every animal has a story. There isn’t a single dog, cat, or critter in a shelter without a unique tale all his or her own. These stories are wide and varied. Many animals were surrendered by loving families who could no longer care for them, while others were neglected or mistreated. Some were strays wandering the streets of our community all by themselves, others arrived on transport with their littermates happily bouncing in tow. Some of the animals we care for have their story written all over their body, and some show absolutely no signs of their past. Every animal is completely unique, but they all have one thing in common.
