Families, Families, and more Families...

Since my theme in my previous blog was about keeping families together, I''d like to blog about some furry little ones that need a family and a forever home. Those of course being the homeless shelter animals that are desperately waiting to find their forever home. For some odd reason a majority of the population  seem to think that shelter animals may not be up to par, but that's anything but the truth as these animals are amazing little bundles of joys and all they are missing are their forever family - their love and happy spirits have no boundaries. I invite you if you are looking for a little furry pet companion to visit your local animal shelter as the animals that are there are pretty amazing. 
And speaking of amazing, I thought I would mention a new bill proposed By Congressman Micheal Grimm called the "Veterans Dog Training Act" that would help homeless animals and veterans by uniting them. Since animals have a natural way of not only calming humans but also helping in healing wounds (and yes this includes the wounds that are not always visible) this is a perfect match for both the soldier and the pet companion. Below I am including a link of what president of the United States Humane Society, Wayne Pacelle had to say; I thought it was interesting and wanted to share. :)
