Celebrate National Pet Day By Adopting A Pet At These NH Shelters

Today is National Pet Day. Needless to say we all love our furry friends. As a matter of fact, a survey by the pet camera maker Petcube finds 84% of pet owners show more affection to their pet than to their significant other!

So we posed this question: Let's pretend there's a dating website for pets. What would your pet's profile say? Check out some of the best ones...

Marley and I celebrated by going to the dog park in Dover. He loves playing with other dogs.

So what do you do if you'd like to celebrate National Pet Day, but you don't have a pet? Well adopt a pet...and then you can celebrate EVERY day. I adopted Marley from Lucky Pup Rescue in Kennebunkport. He's a great dog...and I have spent a minute regretting adding him to my family.

If you're interested in adopting a dog...don't miss Hops & Hounds this summer. Lots and lots of shelters and rescue groups will be on hand with great dogs looking for their forever home.

In the meantime, take a look at these shelters across New Hampshire to find your new best friend.
