surrendering a dog to a shelter include not having the time for the animal and not having the money to properly take care of it. Sometimes an owner has a change in their housing situation and is unable to bring their pet to their new home with them. Other times, people bring in their dogs for behavioral issues that are easily addressed with proper training. The Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals-Angell says, “Some people believe that shelter dogs are somehow damaged or second-rate because they were given away by their first families. This is simply not true.

You can adopt a dog of any age from a shelter. Many adult and senior dogs are in need of loving homes.
