Hallmark movie inspires Petfinder's foster a lonely pet for the holidays program

A Dog named Christmas aired on Hallmark Hall of Fame's presentation on November 29th and presented a new program for Petfinder.com.  Petfinder started the Foster a Lonely Pet for the Holidays program hoping you will invite a shelter pet into your home for this special time of year.

Joan,Happy Tails editor writes in her post November 17th, 2009, "by contacting a perticipating Foster a Lonely Pet for the Holidays shelter or rescue, you'll be helping a shelter during a season when it's short-staffed or when the pet's regular foster "mom" or "dad" needs some respite time.  Plus, you'll be making a difference in some little critter's life."
