If you're hoping to add a fuzzy ball of four-legged love and affection to your life, start with these shelters in the Burlington area for a pet who needs a home. About 6.5 million companion animals are taken in each year by animal shelters nationwide, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. However, only around half of all shelter pets are adopted each year, according to ASPCA data. For those looking to adopt, a great place to start your search for your new four-legged friend is at Passion 4 Paws, where Skeeter the dog is waiting patiently, or another local shelter. 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 permanent homes. If you need some help in your search, Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We've amassed this week's list of animals available for adoption near you. Whether you're a dog person, or if cats are more your thing, there are several great options available. 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.
