Take care of your pets.

The nickname "man's best friend" doesn't go without saying. Dogs, or pets in general, can make us healthier, happier people. After all, we aren't lonely; we have something that will unconditionally love us until the day they die. You'd think after all that our best friends give us, we could give them a little something back.
I've worked at a vet clinic now for a few months and I'm still left speechless. I can't count the number of times that I've heard "can't I just put it to sleep?" or "I don't wanna spend all that money on him, I'll just take him to a shelter". Your pets are your responsibility. They alter your happiness and you control theirs. I will never understand the inconsiderate actions we take upon living things.
