Why Adoption is a Great Option

Flower, a Portland Maltese/Norwich Terrier dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Maltese/Norwich Terrier for sale in Portland, or seeking a Maltese/Norwich Terrier dog from a breeder in Portland.

1. Rescues and shelter volunteers in Portland already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
2. On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Portland breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
3. You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Maltese/Norwich Terrier breeders who help with Maltese/Norwich Terrier rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Portland paves the way for another one to be saved.
