Adoption is a Smarter Option! More Affordable and Humane!
Have you ever seen an adorable dog or puppy up for adoption and featured on your local news channel? Those great animals aren’t rare finds! They are the norm, and just about everywhere - including Phoenix, AZ – there are too many pets and not enough homes choosing to adopt them. Unfortunately, many dogs in Phoenix are still not spayed or neutered resulting in thousands of unwanted dogs each year. Combined with the sale of puppies from puppy mills (large scale breeding facilities that breed animals for profit), backyard breeders, and sub-standard breeders the market is saturated with too many animals. These are the leading causes for why more than four million dogs and puppies and are euthanized every year in the United States. You can help stop this and be part of the solution while adopting a wonderful pet at the same time.
This outlines the importance of adoption. Within Phoenix AZ you can make a positive impact and help a Phoenix dog find a forever home. There is a misconception about Phoenix shelter dogs and puppies, but most of the time they are there because the past owner could not afford to take care of the dog any longer, had to move, went through a divorce, or simply neglected the dog.
Phoenix rescue workers make sure their dogs and puppies are in good health, socialized, taken to the vet for shots and have had a checkup, in addition to if appropriate being spay or neutered before they are up for adoption
The Top 5 Reasons to Adopt in Phoenix AZ
-
It is common for rescuers and animal shelter staff and volunteers to already know the personality and tendencies of many of their dogs and puppies. This means they can better match up your requirements and lifestyle with the ideal dog or puppy. Remember it’s all about the right match!
-
Over 25% of all shelter animals are purebred, and another larger percentage who are mixed breeds closely resemble the traits of purebreds. Due to a larger gene pool to draw from, often mixed-bred dogs have less behavioral problems or health issues.
-
Adult dogs bring many advantages such as already being potty-trained, many are good with kids, or are familiar and comfortable with other pets. It is not uncommon for rescued adult dogs to know tricks! One thing is for certain; adult dogs require less attention and less work than puppies do. Best of all, any rescued dog will be forever grateful you saved their life.
-
Adoption helps save lives! One dog or puppy adopted in Phoenix, AZ paves the way for another one to be saved. You are part of the solution!
-
Adoption is MORE AFFORDABLE. Typically the adoption fee is around $100-$300. This is a bargain when compared to breeding or store prices. It is especially a great deal because usually rescued dogs and puppies have already gone to the vet for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and have been spayed or neutered. It all adds up, but when you choose pet adoption you are paying less for just as wonderful of a dog or puppy!
