The specific interest of mine is animals, mainly domesticated ones in shelters. My love for animals has always consumed me since I was in kindergarten and I knew I always wanted to help them but I just wasn’t sure how to. Now I know. When I first attended North Dakota State University, I already knew I wanted to major in animal science. While getting my education, I figured it would be a good idea to get some experience with animals so I got a job at the shelter. The saying that I always love telling people is to “adopt don’t shop.” According to caninejournal, “Adopting helps fight puppy mills. The more animals adopted from shelters, the less likely a puppy mill is capable of staying in business. This becomes a public concern because when people buy from a puppy mill, they are buying a breaded dog that has spent their whole life in terrible conditions.
I got my first family pet when I was 14 while living in Colorado. The process for getting a dog was surprisingly easy and fast. We basically just had to sign a couple forms. When I started working at the animal shelter, all I mainly did was help people adopt dogs. This made it easy to raise awareness and show people why we need to adopt and not shop.https://www.caninejournal.com/adopt-dont-shop/
