Animal shelters across the U.S. are facing a crisis as they are overwhelmed with dogs and cats. L.A. County is urged to make it easier for dog rescuers to help at shelters. Many animals in shelters are there due to accidental runaways or owners' circumstances. Miami-Dade County Animal Services is also dealing with a housing crisis. The welfare of farmed animals is being advocated for, with new research showing that farm animals may be capable of more than previously thought. Chicago Animal Shelter has rescued over 75 dogs and cats from a Caribbean island.

Another charity spotlight for #givingseason: @TheHumaneLeague has been advocating for the welfare of farmed animals for over a decade. Starting as a grassroots initiative, it's grown into an international organization that’s taken on large food companies (and won!). https://t.co/oTtOu9k1xR
Most dogs at shelters are just dogs who accidentally ran away from home; or were turned in bc their owners had to move, etc. Idiots: "Durrr, they have health problems!" Enjoy your $20000 'pug who can't breathe' and your Labradoodle with severe mental problems!
