Columbia’s animal shelters are overflowing with lovable dogs and cats waiting for a second chance. If you’ve ever thought about adopting, now’s the perfect time to meet pets like Dante, a sweet pit bull terrier who loves chew toys and the outdoors. Every adoption not only changes a pet’s life but also makes room for another animal in need. Whether you’re ready to bring home a new family member or just want to spread the word, your support means everything to these animals. Who’s adopted a pet from a local shelter? Share your stories and let’s celebrate our community’s compassion! #Pets #AdoptDontShop #ColumbiaMO
