Interested in Adding a Canine to the Family?
The Adopted Dog Bible from Petfinder is a “one-stop resource”
Petfinder, the ground-breaking website credited with facilitating the adoptions of over 1.5 million pets since January 1996, is now spreading into new territory.
The Adopted Dog Bible, written by Kim Saunders, Petfinder Vice President of Shelter Outreach and Public Relations, promises to be a “one-stop resource for choosing, training, and caring for your sheltered or rescue dog.”
As noted on the Petfinder site, “The old rules don't always apply to adopted dogs, whose training, past behaviors and health histories may be a mystery. At last, here's the one-stop guide that acknowledges their special needs and covers every detail of daily life.”
The book even goes interactive, referring to nine videos which can be found on the Petfinder website, including
How to Adopt the Right Dog for You and
Preparing Your Home for a Puppy.
So if you are thinking about adding a canine companion to your family, certainly adopt, don’t shop. Remember though, adoption is a lifetime commitment which can last five, ten, or even twenty years. So choose wisely.
