Pictured Here Are Three of My Adorable Mutts,
Little Jack, Highway, and Shadow
“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 loyalty 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 breeds
They are generally better behaved, and they will often live longer
They are just as capable as pure breeds, and perform many tasks
Such as guide dogs for the handicapped, and patrolling our borders
Millions of unwanted and unloved mixed breed dogs now 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
-Please Consider Giving A Deserving Mutt A Home For The Holidays-

I never seem to have opportunity to rescue or save a mutt, the mutts find their way to my door pretty regularly without my looking
maybe someday I will have chance to actually go to shelter to save a mutt, until then it is feed these beasts who come for dinner and provide much happiness for us here!!
Always,
Deborah
I love mutts they are the best!!!
Peace and love,
Amber
(PS: Seems Rebecca got the biggest mutt of the pack when she married you...smart lady...)
Thank you Mr. Ed for the poem. Adopting a Mutt to give a warm
and loving home at Christmas and anytime.

All pets acquired for Christmas this year should come from dog shelters and not from pet stores.
