Every 10 seconds of every day, a dog enters a shelter. That's six dogs every minute, 3.3 million each year, who are living without a real home and a loving family.

But you can make the difference in their lives. With your gift now, you can help the ASPCA find safe and loving homes for more dogs.

Right now, there are dogs full of love to give who are just waiting and hoping someone will take them home. October is Adopt a Shelter Dog Month, and we're calling on members to help us end animal homelessness across the country. You can help dogs who need a chance to shine and become the beloved pets they're meant to be. Here's what your gift today can do:

Rehabilitate fearful and traumatized homeless dogs, so they can heal from their hurtful pasts and thrive in new homes.
Provide medical care, so adoptable dogs are healthy and have vaccinations and spay/neuter surgery, to make a fresh start.
Provide basic pet essentials like a collar, ID tag and microchip, that all dogs should have when they join a new family.
Relocate homeless dogs from areas with a high homeless pet population to areas where they have a greater chance at finding homes.

Not everyone can adopt a dog. But you can still give homeless animals new beginnings—and new homes full of love, cuddles, treats and toys—with your gift now. Please help fight animal homeless today. Together we can help more dogs find homes and happiness.
