Professional Careers and Volunteerism in Animal Rights

It breaks my heart when I hear of any animal being abused. Almost daily, we view tragic pictures in the news of animals, which have been deprived of food and water, or left in cages filled with their own waste. I have seen horses with their ribs sticking out, barely able to stand up. Puppy mills spring up overnight when people discover an easy way to make money. It amazes me that humans can be so uncaring and mean to other living creatures, who can be so loving if given half a chance.Is this new to you? Catch up here

All children desire pets and are told how to take care of them by their parents. What happens to some of these so-called pet owners? Pets are not something to throw away and forget about when you are tired of them. They come with responsibility. Some of this abuse might be remedied by having these abusers volunteer at shelters, caring for animals and donating their time, energy, and even dollars for an animal-s welfare. Veterinarian offices, pet rescuers, humane societies, wildlife officers, and many other organizations could benefit from work done by volunteers. What these forced volunteers would learn could never be measured in dollars and cents.
