Description

Looking to add to your family and make a positive impact on the world at the same time? Maybe it's the right time to adopt a pet! Facilities in the Burlington area have dogs, cats and other animals ready and waiting for someone to take them home. Over 6 million pets and other companion animals are surrendered to animal pounds each year nationwide, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. However, only around half of all animals are adopted each year, according to ASPCA data. For those looking to adopt, a great place to start your search for an adorable new companion is at Passion 4 Paws, where Doogie the dog is waiting patiently, or another local rescue center. If you aren't sure if you have time to take care of a pet year round, many shelters also offer opportunities to foster pets until they are placed in appropriate homes. Need some help in your search? Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We've rounded up this week's list of animals available for adoption near you. If you're a dog person, you might like COURTESY, an Australian Cattle Dog / Blue Heeler up for adoption. Or if cats are more your thing, there are several great cats available, too. Click on any listing for more information or to start the adoption process. Editor's note: This list was automatically generated using data compiled by Petfinder. If you're a local shelter looking to see your adoptable pets appear on Patch, you'll need to list them through Petfinder.
