Hello, Readers, April 19, 2018

On April 23, the U.S. will celebrate its fifth annual National Lost Dog Awareness Day (NLDAD). This canine-focused awareness day was created by Lost Dogs of America to bring attention to the multitude of dogs that go missing from their homes, each and every day, while providing resources and hope to reunite them. This day and these efforts to reunite lost pets with their owners is a tribute to the human-animal bond. National Lost Dog Awareness Day  reminds the public that “Not All Stray Dogs Are Homeless.” An estimated 40 to 60 percent of “stray” animals in shelters are actually lost pets who really don’t need a new home. They just need some help to get back home. For more information see www.lostdogsofamerica.org or visit their website.
