A Much More Suitable Partnership

This morning, I was very pleased to see a new partnership announced on the front door of the CFHS website, http://cfhs.ca/
Making Adoption Everyone’s First Option
- CFHS working together with Petfinder.com
The CFHS and Petfinder.com have partnered together to help animals waiting to be adopted in Canada. Petfinder.com is a website dedicated to featuring animals awaiting adoption currently in the care of shelters or rescue societies across Canada, the US and Mexico. Because of their strong commitment to adoption and the work of our member societies, the CFHS happily endorses Petfinder.com as a great way to find a new pet. You will also find great information and helpful tips on everything from choosing the right shelter, responsible pet ownership, to pet health & care.
As well, you will notice that we have a featured pet ad on our website. These animals are up for adoption at CFHS member organizations. As well under our Animals at Home section you will see a new pet search tool. If you are looking for a new pet, this search tool is a great way to browse by animal type, breed, age, etc. Should you be interested in any of the animals that are up for adoption please contact the organization directly.

As the national voice for humane organizations in this country, this is a far more appropriate partnership than the last couple that have been announced. Anyone who has read this blog, or the old one, knows what a valuable tool this middle aged granny thinks that www.petfinder.com is. Its a free tool that is used by people interested in pet adoption. What could be better than that, eh?
