I will definitely be going into more detail in a future post, but in short, adoption is both morally and economically sound.
When you adopt a dog, cat, or other animal from a shelter or rescue, you are saving the life of an animal who may otherwise be killed, or left without a home.
Moreover, you will pay much less than you would at other places. For example: Shelter puppies at the Central Missouri Humane Society cost $120 to adopt, and have already been spayed or neutered, given vaccinations, dewormed, and given a microchip. In addition, you will receive assistance in choosing and caring for your dog. Your adoption donation may even be tax-deductible, as the CMHS is a non-profit organization.
By supporting your local shelter, you make it possible for them to continue programs in your community that benefit animals and people, like spay/neuter services, low-cost veterinary care, and humane education.
