Lilly Allen Adopts a Shelter Dog. Recommends Others Do The Same

She can be a wild child at times but I was so happy to hear that Lilly Allen is setting a great example for others when it comes to animals.  She’s made the decision to adopt a dog from a shelter instead of buying one from a breeder and is even encouraging others to do the same.  I’m very passionate about animals and I love when people have healthy attitudes about them like Lilly does.  On her blog, the singer writes,

“Anyways in other news, I’m getting a dog from Battersea dogs home , i found her on the weekend, and after a visit from a rehoming officer hopefully, i’ll have her by next week . She’s called Honey and she’s quite fat (insert dogs like their owners joke here) , but very sweet , she’s a mongrel . There were so many Stafforshire Bullies there it was so sad . People should really think about getting puppies from breeders or breeding them for that matter , if you saw all those poor dogs without a home with their sad little faces , you wouldn’t even think about buying dogs from people who profit.”

If you’re interested in bringing an animal into your home, I would strongly encourage you to adopt from your local shelter or rescues.  You can also search at www.PetFinder.com for the perfect little guy – or girl – to warm your heart.  My middle furkid, Sam, was found using PetFinder and I can’t tell you how happy he makes us every single day!
