If you haven’t already experienced the joy of dog adoption, there’s no time like the present
to save a K9 life, and upgrade your own in the process. I should know: I’ve been adopting
dogs from rescues since 1994, when I brought home my very first hound dog, a black
vision of beauty named Missy. Since then, I’ve adopted dozens of dogs in every
imaginable color, shape, and size. Some of them I rehomed; many wound up staying
with me. Rescue dogs have taught me more lessons about life and love than I can count
or recount here. This much I can tell you: There’s no nicer, more unpretentious teacher
than a rescue dog! Missy was also a brilliant coach, motivating me to achieve every
dream. I've noticed that rescues can get out if hand real quick for many reasons.
Rescue dogs also impart excellent design advice. Thanks to my adopted dogs, I was
able to summon the courage to start my own rescue. So I teach them all the life of a
Home to Share. Rescue dogs are natural-born decorators; they vote with their feet, and
they don’t charge a fee. Plus, they are wonderful to sleep with, especially when the
weather turns cold. Rescue dogs are great in bed. At my place, every night is a four-dog
night!
Need incentive? Here are 10 compelling reasons to adopt a shelter dog. What are you
waiting for?
1. As the environmentally conscious recycling movement has proven, it’s easy (and fun!)
being green, and dog adoption is the noblest form of recycling. One person’s trash (boo!)
is another’s treasured pet.
2. Every year, millions of healthy, sweet, soulful dogs are killed at animal shelters across
this country just for lack of cage space; as with people, bad luck can cause good dogs to
become homeless through no fault of their own. By adopting a rescue dog, you’are doing
your part to help end the nationwide crisis of homelessness.
3. With so many charismatic celebrities walking around with adopted dogs by their side
— Lenny Kravitz among them — it’s clear that adoption isn’t just the right thing to do, it’s
the cool thing to do. To your adopted dog, you’re the resident rock star!
4. You know all those people who are so proud of their honor-student kids? Well,
adopted dogs are super-smart, the Mensas of muttdom. So skip the bumper sticker —
flaunt stray pride with a cool collar or T-shirt. Even your coffee can proclaim pride for
pound pups!
5. Don’t you want somebody to love? Somebody who will actually love you back? For
anyone who’s ever suffered the pangs of unrequited affection — and who hasn’t? — rest
assured that an adopted dog will return those tender feelings tenfold. No more lonely
nights!
6. If you’ve had it up to here with criticism from your nearest and dearest, get used to
unconditional K9 adoration. Years of psychotherapy can’t hold a candle to an adopted
dog’s uncomplaining, adoring presence. “Dinner’s late? Again? I adore you!”
7. Got performance anxiety about trying out a new hobby or activity? With an adopted dog
as your nonjudgmental audience or workout partner, there’s nothing to fear: From
exercise routines to gourmet cooking to knitting, your efforts will get an A+ even if they
deserve a D!
8. Adopting a dog proves you’re a person of great inner depth who values substance (a
mystery dog of unknown parentage) over style (a predictable pedigreed purebred).
9. But hey, if you’re a style hound, there’s no more stylin’ statement than a shelter dog —
she/he coordinates beautifully with any outfit or style of decor!
10. Are you a political animal? Then reaffirm your faith in the democratic process with an
adopted dog. After all, rescue mutts are the people’s dog: Un perro fuera de muchos,
one dog out of many. Uncle Sam wants YOU to adopt today!

ABOUT MISSY:
Missy was 8 weeks old when she found me. She
knew nothing but neglect for the first eight weeks
and was abandoned and left to fend for herself.
She was the most precious and wonderful dog I
have ever known.
Missy was the happiest dog. Everything she did,
every part of her life, made her happy. From
traveling from California to Texas, while sneaking
into hotels along the way in a pillow case. She
loved to cuddle and her 45 pounds never stopped
her from settling in my lap. She loved going on
walks, playing at the dog park, and running along
the beach. And everywhere she went, she led the
way, looking back at me as if she was saying,
"Hurry Up! There's much to see!" She was sixteen
years old when she crossed over that Rainbow
Bridge. Now she rest on our farm watching over
me!

| Dogs are a source of unconditional love. When things go wrong in life, your doggie is always there to give you a kiss, a snuggle, or to lay a reassuring head on your lap. Your puppy loves you no matter what. Your dog doesn’t care if you’re rich, or homeless; if you run Microsoft, or you bag groceries at the local Wal-Mart. When you are sad, your dog is always there to comfort you. He or she will never leave your side. He or she will never desert you. Dogs give you unconditional love and understanding. All you need is LOVE… And a dog! |
