Happy Monday! We wanted to share this wonderful video from The Huffington Post - get your tissues ready! Recent research by the ASPCA has shown that there is “no correlation between getting an animal as a gift and an owner’s love and attachment to the pet – even if that pet was a surprise gift – and no increased risk of relinquishment for dogs and cats received as gifts.” This is wonderful news as we see this as an awesome opportunity to save even more animals’ lives now during the holidays and throughout the year. Keep in mind that our Adoption teams will continue to counsel and educate all potential adopters to make the best match possible for the person who will be the recipient of the gift animal. The counselors will also be working with the gift giver to ensure that the potential recipient has expressed a sustained interest in owning a pet and has the ability to care for it responsibly. huffingtonpost/2014/12/16/puppy-present_n_6329860.html?ncid=fcbklnkushpmg00000023
