This weekend, August 19, is "Clear The Shelters" Day. Finding Forever Homes
Its actually a week long event this week but they are pushing Saturday August 19. Its a nation wide pet adoption event to obviously "Clear The Shelters" nation wide.
If you're considering something for home, some shelters also have farm animals, like horses, goats, chickens etc in addition to the usual dogs & cats.
If you have been considering adopting a pet for your companion on the road, this just may give you the incentive to do it this week/weekend. Some (I am assuming most or all) shelters are offering incentives on adoptions during the event.

A little tip. Chickens don't make very good trucking companions unless you keep them in a crate. And whatever you do, don't travel with a male chicken - aka a rooster.

A fantastic idea!
Some of my best companion pets were shelter rescues. Hard to find a more loyal dog oitside of shelters or rescue.
I'm currently serving as a forever home to four shelter rescue cats and one breed rescue Malamute.48Packard Thanks this. -
Wonder what's available at the homeless shelter for wayward women?

My Uncle Sam had a parrot named Sammy that he had riding with him for about 20 years. He got it while in the marines deployed to quam during ww2. They let him keep it on base and amazingly he was somehow allowed to bring it home after the war

How many chickens do I need to have in a cage where the passenger seat would be to be eligible for the livestock hauler no eld exemption?

As far as Pets, I don't think I will take on any more in my life time. They can be excessively expensive in the Vet if something comes up sick. Thinking back on my last pet, which was one of the best pets I have ever seen in this life time, I don't think I will ever find another that will do as well as that one did.
So, no pets for us any time soon, if ever. -
