When Shelly picks up stray dogs to put up for adoption, how does she make sure they don already have a home?
Shelly would never take a dog away from a family that loves and provides for it. When she rescue strays in rural areas along the road, she always checks for tags. If the dog doesn’t have tags, she will ask around, knocking on doors for example, and try to find out if anyone knows who it belongs to (or in many cases, who has been feeding it scraps here and there). If the dog does have tags or if she gets relevant information, she will track down the owner.
