Blue Cross is an integral part of our family. We have, over the years, rescued many stray dogs and sent them to the animal shelter to be fed and neutered, so they have a better chance of survival.
Our family dog Uno is from Blue Cross. He came to us as a shy, timid and bony canine. In a matter of just a few weeks, with home cooked meals, attention, grooming, and the loving care of my parents, he transformed into a happy, friendly and watchful dog.
A few days ago, we paid a regular visit to the shelter again. The kids love the animal shelter and look forward to interacting with canines and felines — the strays, the abandoned and abused animals looking for human attention.
The highlight of our afternoon at the shelter was a week old grey puppy that whined for attention. He had a glossy and healthy grey coat. The kids soon named him ‘Gobi Gray’ and pleaded to take him home with us.

He was one of the dozen other puppies in his living quarters. Gobi Gray wasn’t interested in the little doggy treats we brought with us. With all the yelping, tail wagging and jumping, he was clearly implying that we carry him out of the cubicle in our arms.
That’s where he wanted to be. In the warmth and comfort of our arms, the puppy stopped yelping and looked peaceful. He buried his head deep into our arms and t-shirts as if to say that he belonged with us. We were lucky to be on the receiving end of unlimited puppy love.
India has a huge share of four-legged, two-legged and winged strays or street animals — this is evident literally at every street corner. Some of these animals need acute medical care but many, in fact most of them, just need a home.
So what is the pedigree problem? In India, pedigree breeding is growing at a rapid rate due to high demand. As some prospective pet-owners choose to pay thousands upon thousands of rupees for a carefully bred and selected ‘pure-blood’ animal, countless shelter animals are being overlooked.
Gobi Gray, despite his impeccably soft fur and gentle floppy ears, may never find a home because of those who only consider buying a pedigree animal (often for exclusivity).
The organization follows up after the animal has been adopted to make sure they are not abused.

They do not realize that there are innumerable existing creatures already offering their everlasting affection, loyalty and company in exchange for a little shelter and love.
If you are looking for a domestic pet, a watchdog or animal companionship, you must consider adopting an animal instead of buying. Here are some points to ponder:
