So what happens to pets that are old, ill and no longer wanted?

Good question.

In working with an Animal Shelter next to my clinic, ( The Second Chance Animal Shelter),
I regularly see dogs and cats come in that are no longer "wanted".

In some circumstances, people move, or one of the "unwanted" pets owners die.

In other cases, its not tragic or understandable..

Some people see their aging sick pet as a "burden" and choose to get rid of them.

Many of these pets are unfortunately difficult to adopt.

Would you adopt a aging, sick older pet?

Because of this I am working with another person to start a " Pet Sanctuary"

We are hoping to have it going in the spring..

Thinking of this I just viewed a video in which a couple has started a Dog Hospice out of
their house.

You can see the video by going here:
