This document promotes adopting shelter dogs by highlighting how the dogs will respond with love and loyalty if rescued with compassion rather than pity or hidden agendas. It notes that each year millions of dogs and cats are taken to shelters and millions are euthanized, so adopting even just one animal can help reduce overpopulation and provide a homeless pet with a loving home.
