Every day 32,000 dogs and cats are placed in animal shelters - that's over 11 million animals a year. Add birds, small animals, reptiles and other pets and the annual number grows by millions. Over 25% of the dogs in shelters are pure bred; the rest are equally, if not more lovable, mixed breeds - affectionately referred to as "mutts".

Individuals and families rely on animal shelters to provide a vast selection of dogs and cats in all colors, shapes and sizes for adoption. However, despite the tireless efforts of the caring professionals at animal shelters throughout the country, only one-half of the animals at shelters are adopted in any given year. Adoptions between individuals make up the remainder of animal exchanges in the US.

By working closely with shelters and individual pet guardians, petstoAgoodhome.com can help you find a new pet that would be best suited for your environment, lifestyle and family arrangement.
