There’s a really great way to celebrate National Mutt Day (Dec 2nd) here in Houston…you can visit some of our amazing shelters and volunteer, donate, or adopt a pet! The Holiday Season is a time where we try to be kind and help others less fortunate then us. It’s also a time for gift giving. Instead of buying a pet from a breeder, adopt! Or donate. We are taking some time today to share with you a list of shelters that are working hard to provide a loving and healthy environment for pets who need it the most! Here are some great shelters to support on National Mutt Day in Houston.
Adopt A Shelter Pet For National Mutt Day!
National Mutt Day is a time to think about our favorite furry friends! You can support these shelters and all the mutts that they help by giving your time, money, supplies, or even just a few clicks via social media to spread the word to your friends, families, or co workers. You’d never realize how much that exposure really means for these pets who are just hoping to find a nice happy home for the holidays! I can’t imagine spending my holiday season without my family, I’m sure these little guys and gals at the shelters are feeling the same way. Stop in and see who you meet, maybe they’ll save your life just like you are saving theirs!
