The day also brings attention to the urgent need for care of and homes for orphanaged pups, as well as educating people about puppy mills around the country. Puppies are a big responsibility. Be sure to investigate everything involved before deciding to adopt from a shelter. The puppies there need love and a home just as much as any other, and they're also loyal pets.

According to the ASPCA, nearly 3.3 million dogs enter shelters each year. Some of these puppies come with litters of puppies. Check the shelters first if you're looking for a puppy to start your furry family. Each one of these abandoned and injured animals find their way to a shelter, and their potential is limitless.
