\"\"<\/a>As the seasons begin to change and we enter the month of October, we find that this is a time of awareness on many different levels. It is National Breast Cancer Month, Domestic Violence Awareness Month, Bullying Prevention Awareness Month, National Information Literacy Awareness Month, Pit Bull Awareness Month, and Adopt a Dog Month.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Certainly all of these causes are extremely important, but being that I am an animal advocate, I wanted to focus on Adopt a Dog Month and share a Pet Adoption Facts video put together by the Petco<\/a> organization in honor of their National Adoption Reunion event taking place this October 6 & 7. Petco\u00a0is already devoted to holding weekend adoption events on a regular basis, but they wanted to use the reunion as a way to celebrate\u00a0forever homes pets have found, give some great gifts away, and encourage new adoptions. Please check with your local store for exact times, details and offers.<\/p>\n

The overall message of the video is to increase pet adoptions, not just dogs, but cats\u00a0 too and it also shares the positive message of the health and emotional benefits that pets bring into our lives. I love that message and one does not need a special month dedicated to the cause to understand the value and sentiment of this video year long.<\/p>\n
