Raise a Green Dog and Petside.com to help shine light on pet adoption!

Being the green dog that I am, I believe that shelter and rescue pups are amazing pups, just waiting for their furever home. By adopting a pup from a shelter, you are not only helping the environment, but you are saving life!

And the best part is you can find lovable, wonderful, talented, cute, big or small, fun and furry, purebred and All-American pups at shelters and rescues all across this great country.

So when we were asked to participate in the First Annual Pet 'Net Adoption Event we jumped at the chance. Here are the details, and be sure and stop back on Thursday, when we will be blogging about an amazing story of a rescued pup - the mascot of Rescue Me.
