National "No-Kill" Day

Today is a special day- one that is near and dear to my heart.  As a rescued dog saved from being killed at a shelter, it's important to me to share this.

I was a stray when a shelter took me in.  However, my days were numbered and very limited- they didn't have the resources to keep me forever. My new human and I are forever grateful and thankful that volunteers with PetConnect Rescue, Potomac, MD and Pilots N Paws came to my rescue.  They arranged for me to come to Potomac, Maryland where I met my new human and the rest of the story is history.  And, of course, I learned to write this blog!!

National "No-Kill" Day is when Animal Control Agencies, Shelters, and Rescues throughout the United Sates are saying YES to LIFE, and are not killing any animals in their facilities on this landmark day!

Please join us in celebrating "National No Kill Day" by supporting your local Shelters and Rescues and take ACTION for ANIMALS!  How? You can adopt or foster a dog.  If you can do either, how about supporting them financially and/or volunteering?

If you are interested in becoming involved in the No-Kill Movement, please visit their website at 
www.nokilladvocacycenter.org?  If you are a social media type (which I know I am) you can visit their page at www.facebook.com/NOKILLNATION.

There are many success stories like mine which have made a tremendous impact on humans and animals alike!   I hope you'll do what you can to enable more successes!!!
