While pets are always an exciting gift to receive during the holidays, Best Friends Animal Society is encouraging animal lovers to choose adoption.
In a press release, Best Friends Animal Society CEO Julie Castle explained that adopting instead of shopping this season can help divert money away from the “inhumane puppy mill industry that churns out millions of puppies annually.”

“Not everyone considers this, but where gifted pets come from can either help or hurt efforts to end the killing of pets in shelters,” Castle said.

“I encourage everyone to adopt rather than buy a pet from a breeder, pet store or online retailer,” she also said.
Best Friends Animal Society is a leading national animal welfare organization dedicated to ending the killing of dogs and cats in America’s shelters, the group says on its website. It works with shelters, rescue groups and members nationwide.
