Rescue Centers

Fridays always seem to remind me of what I like to call "Rescue Weekend".

As some of you may know about four years ago we rescued our dog Sophie from Life Line Puppy Rescue in Brighton, Colorado.  Friends of ours knew we were looking to adopt a dog and suggested this wonderful organization that goes out across the country to various kill shelters to rescue dogs and help them find new homes.  Throughout the week they typically send out email notifications and postings on their web site to let folks know what dogs they have available for adoption for the upcoming weekend.  This is the photo of Sophie they posted and it's no wonder I fell in love with her right off.

So if you're looking for a new addition to the family and are wondering what to do this weekend check out your local rescue shelters to see what they have going on.  I bet you'll be surprised how many shelters are near you.   Make a day of it and bring your family and friends to a rescue shelter.  So many wonderful dogs are looking for a home!
