While it is a cute grab with headline news, it is sad that owners are surrendering animals because of the economy. A few weeks ago, a dog came to my house to live as a foster, for this very same reason.
How we can help in our community:
In Ms. Spencer's article there is mention of The Volunteer Way food bank that aids families, and gives vouchers for free pet food to be redeemed at the SPCA, a nonprofit animal shelter on Congress St., New Port Richey.
The SPCA is running low on food, so please donate food so many of these animals can stay in the home.
If you volunteer for a rescue group, Nature's Select of Tampa Bay will give a generous discount to you and free home delivery.
