Be a Responsible Owner In the United States, 2,000 pets an hour have to be euthanized…Please Help stop these unnecessary deaths, be a responsible pet owner! 1. Select the right pet.
 | Selecting the right pet is the first and most important step. |
| The “wrong” pet makes for an unhappy owner. |
| Consider your lifestyle: do you have the time and energy to give your pet enough attention and exercise? |
2. Spay and neuter your pet.
| Prevents unwanted pets. |
| Prevents problems for you. |
| Prevents cancer and other diseases. |
| Makes pets calmer, more content. |
| Reduces spotting or spraying problems, and |
| Discourages roaming and fighting. |
3. Use proper identification.
| The rabies identification tag is your pet's “free phone call home!” |
| The law requires that all pets wear rabies tags. |
| The most common reason pets are not found: NO Identification! |
| A frequent excuse for missing tags – “We just gave our pet a bath…” |
4. What you – and only you – can do for your pet…
| Provide proper training. |
| Confine dogs to your home or in a fenced yard. |
| Keep cats indoors. |
