Four million cats and dogs—about one every eight seconds—are put down in U.S. shelters each year. Often these animals are the offspring of cherished family pets. Spay/neuter is a proven way to reduce pet overpopulation, ensuring that every pet has a family to love them. Many cats and dogs who die as a result of pet overpopulation could have made wonderful pets.
A solution is possible and starts with each of us taking one small step: getting our own pets spayed or neutered. To help stop pet overpopulation further, consider adopting your next pet from an animal shelter.

BREED: Yorkshire Terrier Mix
LOCATION: The A.N.N.A. Shelter in Erie PA
NAME: Bella
AGE/GENDER: Adult Spayed Female
NOTES:
Hi, my name is Bella. I am an adult spayed female Yorkshire Terrier mix. I am a lovable little girl but I wasn’t always this friendly. I was found in an abandoned house, my owner left and never came back for me. I was full of fleas, dirty and terrified of everything. Now that I have been here for a couple weeks I have really begun to come out of my shell. I love people that I know but it takes me a while to warm up to new people. I am looking for a quiet and patient home that will help me learn that all people are nice and that I don’t need to be afraid. Once I am comfortable with someone, I love to cuddle and be pet. I would do best in a home without children where I can just relax and be pampered.
