Adopting a dog from an animal shelter is an act of kindness that brings so much joy to everyone involved. The dog will be excited to finally find a loving home. Of course, a pet-owner will get the joy of acquiring a loyal friend that will be there through the ups and downs. The shelter will have free space for a new pet that needs it. Oh, and we almost forgot about the people on the other side of the screen smiling radiantly while looking at the pictures of happy faces and wet noses of owners and dogs who have finally found each other!
