There's a Better Way to Get Your New Christmas Puppy
Read on and become the smartest person in the room -- or the Zoom!
Today is Celebrate Shelter Pets day, a reminder that if you are looking for a new companion, the best places to look may not be pet stores or breeders.
Each year, tens of thousands of our feline and canine friends see their stories end in animal shelters, although the number of so-called “no-kill” facilities are on the rise.
If you’re thinking about getting yourself — or someone you love — a pet for Christmas, you may be able to find your best new friend at a nearby shelter.
That’s the top story in this week’s Essential News report published in Florida Weekly. Other topics this week include:
—National Microwave Oven Day and the story behind it’s invention.
—The anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor and what the Japanese admiral who orchestrated the attack didn’t say about dragging America into World War II.
—How to be a successful explorer from either the future or the past for Time Traveler Day.
And more.
