I think yes. Whenever I read the newspaper (okay, I admit, I read the newspaper xD) There are advertisements on how many stray dogs and cats and pets there are in the SPCA. They definietly need our help. I also think that its totally worth it to get pets from SPCA, because youll make a friend, and the SPCA will be helping you all the way.

they are so friendly and small and fluffy but not all dogs are small like boxers,Golden retrievers, and huskies Dogs are so popular because they are helpful, strong, fun, friendly and playful. Answer Some people have them for protection while most just want a loyal and loving pet. They say pet owners are more calm because of their pets and will live longer lives and it seems to prove true. Unlike humans, pets love a person no matter how they look and often dogs are very useful for the blind, can tell when a person is going into a seizure and help them. They are also used to sniff out drugs, they are used in science to sniff out cancer in humans, help the police track down criminals, herd cattle and sheep, etc. Dogs have been used for working dogs for centuries and now many of us have them simply as loving pets. That old saying, 'The more I get to know people, the more I love my pets!' It great to come home to a pet that is happy to see you and just be content being near you after you may have had a bad day.

The Romans had the basic domestic type pets the same as us. They tolerated cats and the cats tolerated them. They definitely had dogs but many of their dogs were working dogs such as guard dogs, hunting dogs, and patrol dogs. The Romans seemed to be very fond of birds as pets as there are many mentions of birds both in poetry and in prose.
