According to the ASPCA, approximately 3.3 million dogs enter shelters every year. Each one of these abandoned and abused animals find their way to a shelter, and their potential is limitless. They're rescue dogs. They're rescue dogs.
Dogs will find a way to nuzzle, fetch, or beg your way into your heart, regardless of their size, color, or breed. You will find it difficult not to scratch one behind the ear rather than scratching one behind the ear.
Rescue dogs often overcome challenging obstacles. And yet, they provide comfort, safety, and companionship as family pets. Rescue dogs are also capable of much more. They serve as service animals and provide assistance to the elderly with training, contributing to the independence of people with disabilities as service animals and seniors. In these situations, they become our eyes, ears, or legs as well as our best friend.
