National Puppy Day is March 23 – a day meant to educate the public about the horrors of puppy mills and encourage folks to adopt abandoned puppies from shelters and rescue groups. National Puppy Day was founded by Colleen Paige, pet lifestyle expert, back in 2006 and has gained in popularity ever since. This year I want to introduce you to my friend, Mary Nielsen, founder of MySweetPuppy.net who has some important tips to share about National Puppy Day and the importance of adopting your new best friend.
