The statistics surrounding animal shelters are astounding. Nationally, there are about 5,000 shelters into which 5 million animals enter annually. Approximately 60% of the dogs and 70% of the cats are euthanized. The organizations and individuals who run these kennels desperately need our support. Today I donated a bag of puppy chow to one of these groups. This strikes me as a very small gesture in light of the enormity of the challenges that these shelters face. I urge you to take a moment to call your local SPCA or Humane Society to see how you can help.
