Yesterday, my adult son signed up to #volunteer at a fantastic local #pet rescue. They need humans to play with the #cats and walk the #dogs for enrichment vs being stuck in kennels.
After four hours, he came home with shocking stories of people dropping off (aka dumping) their old #pets because they had become too much work. And that was a Thursday. They told him wait until you see what happens on a Saturday. 😱
As he was leaving, an old blind dog was turned in by it's owner because it kept running away. Yeah, no.
Occasionally, I will post available pets. Maybe one will catch your heart.
