Rescue Dog
Pet adoption is the process of transferring responsibility for a pet that was previously owned by another party such as a person, shelter, or rescue organization. Common sources for adoptable pets are animal shelters and rescue groups. Some organizations give adopters ownership of the pet, while others use a guardianship model wherein the organization retains some control over the animal's future use or care. Online pet adoption sites have databases of pets being housed by thousands of animal shelters and rescue groups, and are searchable by the public. People deal with their unwanted pets in many ways. Some people have the pet euthanized (also known as ''putting down'' or ''putting to sleep''), although many veterinarians do not consider this to be an ethical use of their resources for young and healthy animals, while others argue that euthanasia is a more humane option than leaving a pet in a cage for very long periods of time. Other people simply release the pet into th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
