October is National Adopt-a-Shelter-Dog Month. Whether you're looking for a purebred pal or a mixed-breed friend, check out the terrific dogs waiting for homes at your local animal shelter. If you're thinking about adopting a dog and would like to do a bit more research, visit the website of the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals at aspca.org or that of the Humane Society of the United States at hsus.org. Both have extensive information for prospective dog owners.
