O...YOU'RE MOVING, having a baby, getting divorced, buying a new home, redecorating... The Middlburg Humane Foundation, along with other shelters, receive numerous calls from owners looking to give up their animals. They have every excuse imaginable!

When you adopt an animal it should be considered a member of the family with a lifelong commitmemt to that animal. Animals give you undying love and devotion. They ask very little, yet give so much. Shouldn't you return that love? Be a responsible pet owner – make a lifelong commitment or don't do it at all.
