Breed-specific rescue groups always have purebred dogs and puppies looking for new homes.<\/li>\n<li>Most pets end up homeless through no fault of their own\u2014&#8221;moving&#8221; and &#8220;landlord issues&#8221; are the top reasons people give for relinquishing their pets, meaning shelters and rescue groups are full of wonderful, family-ready pets.<\/li>\n<li>Pets adopted from shelters and rescue groups typically cost less than pets purchased or even acquired for free\u2014once you add in the cost of vaccinations, spay\/neuter surgery, microchip, dewormer and other &#8220;extras&#8221; included in your adoption fee, you&#8217;ll probably be surprised what a bargain an adopted pet really is!<\/li>\n<li>Most shelters and rescue groups conduct thorough behavioral analyses of each pet to ensure that they will be the right fit for your family.<\/li>\n<li>Shelters and rescue groups can provide advice on making your relationship with your pet the best it can be for the rest of their life, so you\u2019ll never have to go it alone.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you\u2019re thinking about adopting a new pet into your family, we encourage you to visit our employee-crowd-sourced resources below.
