Shelters First is an awareness campaign, created to encourage people to find their next pet at a shelter.Our primary goal is to increase awareness of all the wonderful pets that are available at shelters. Shelters First is sponsored by the shelters of Silicon Valley, California – but the message is vital to people and animals across the United States.If only 5% more pet owners adopt from a shelter, overcrowding will be eliminated. Only five percent!Tell your family & friends: When you’re ready for a pet, think Shelters First.
