So I don't know why anyone would abandon a household pet, but people do. Unfortunately, not all animal shelters have "no kill" policies, meaning that many of them are condemned to death.
Following is a petition to establish "no kill" policies at New York City animal shelters. Yes, they mall be overwhelmed with pets, but that's no excuse.
So please say yes.

Oh, and if you want to adopt a Bichon, here's where we got Teddy Bear. It may require a long trip, but it's worth it. It was an over 7 hour drive for us, and we know we did the right thing for this little guy.
