The Hobo Foundation, created in honor of a dog named Hobo, was organized to help find homes for stray or unwanted animals.
Hobo was a frightened, lost dog who wandered up to the home of a family in Florence, Alabama. Hobo was cold, wet, dirty and untrusting of humans. The family took in Hobo as a pet, and as they slowly earned his trust, their home became his home. After Hobo passed away, the family created the Hobo Foundation in his memory.
To help find good homes for pets like Hobo and to educate pet owners on the importance of spaying and neutering their pets, The Hobo Foundation has created PetsToAdopt.com. PetsToAdopt.com is a website which features animals that are currently available for adoption at animal shelters. Animal lovers can find pets on this site, and then visit the shelter to adopt the pet.
While the site allows you to locate a specific animal and in most cases even see a photo, prospective pet owners must contact the shelter directly to make certain a particular pet is still available. While the site is updated regularly, PetsToAdopt.com cannot guarantee the availability of a specific animal.
The PetsToAdopt.com web site also contains helpful information for pet owners. The site includes a Resources section with articles explaining the benefits of spaying and neutering, tips for good pet care, suggested veterinarians, and other informative updates.
The Hobo Foundation hopes you find your next loving pet through their efforts, and that PetsToAdopt.com will help pet owners realize the importance of spaying and neutering their pets.
