We talk about the realities and the state of the union for rescue animals in the US. Best Friends Animal Society, founded in its present form in 1993, is an American nonprofit 501 animal welfare organization. The group does outreach nationwide with shelters, rescue groups and members to promote pet adoption, no-kill animal rescue, and spay-and-neuter practices. They have life saving centers across the US and are growing aggressively to support and help homeless dogs. Best Friends has set a goal to be No-Kill for Cats and Dogs in America’s Shelters by 2025 You believe that animals deserve compassion and good quality of life. You also love your community and want to take action for the pets and people in it. Here’s how. Last year, about 733,000 dogs and cats were killed in our nation’s animal shelters, simply because they didn’t have safe places to call home. Together, we can change that and achieve no-kill for dogs and cats nationwide by 2025. You can follow them at @bestfriendsanimalsociety on Instagram. Best Friends does fundraising events throughout the year including their nationwide event called Strut your Mutt. You can donate and support the rescue and animal advocacy efforts of Best Friends here.
