-National Mutt Day is December 2nd-

“In every heart there is a hole,

And in every shelter, there is love to fill it.”

            Colleen Paige,

Creator of National Mutt Day

Most of my rescued canines

Are marvelous mixed breeds

Dogs do not need AKC papers

To bring love and happiness to me

Sadly, the majority of canines that are euthanized

In our animal shelters, are unwanted, mixed breeds

Far too many people, still do not spay and neuter pets

Far too many people, still insist on purchasing pedigrees

Yet, mixed breed dogs are usually healthier than the pure breds

They are generally better behaved, and they will often live longer

They’re just as capable as pure bred dogs, and perform many tasks

Such as guide dogs for the handicapped, and patrolling our borders

Millions of unwanted and unloved mixed breed dogs, wait in shelters

For someone to come adopt them, and make them a part of their family

Please consider fostering or adopting a Mutt, and saving a deserving life

The majority of dogs that I have had the privilege to know, had no pedigree

(And They Have Always Given Their All, To Me)
