If you are looking to adopt a pet, look no further than your
local shelter. But before choosing the right dog or cat, ask
yourself these important questions:
· Is a pet right for my household?
· Who will take care of it?
· Can I afford a pet?
· Am I ready to make a life-long commitment? ·
. Will I commit to basic training for my pet?
