The Humane League of Lake Lanier, the regions largest volunteer animal shelter, is encouraging families to open up their hearts to a homeless pet this holiday season.  Adopt a pet between Dec 14th and Dec 23rd and a volunteer Elf (maybe even Santa) will deliver the new family member to your home on Christmas day.
 
Christmas delivery provides a safe and easy way to introduce a new pet outside of the chaos of Christmas morning.  “Surprise the children with pet toys under the tree” suggests Humane League President Beth Mulrooney.  “That gives parents an opportunity to talk with the kids about the responsibilities of a new pet before they arrive”.  The Humane League does not encourage pets as a surprise gift outside of a household, and all the adults should be involved in the adoption.  The delivery area is limited.
