Lastly NEVER abandon your DOG

The number of dogs abandoned at shelters or on street is increasing every year. And these shelters are overburdened and underfunded due to which they are forced to euthanize many dogs which is extremely cruel and unfair to animals that from birth put their trust in human to care for them.

Whatever the reason of yours, for not caring them you must find another home for your buddies.

Dogs are living, breathing creatures with personalities and feeling's just like us. And just like us they have the right to live a good life.

PLEASE DON'T ABANDON YOUR DOG
