If you saw this Instagram Post on how corporations are monetizing your pets, then this is for you.


It is that time of year again, when families begin thinking of presents for one another.  The sad thing is many dog owners will acquire their very first dog during this season.


I recently heard a social post claiming that people have less dementia if they own a dog.  The study was done in China.  Where I suspect that dementia is dealt with very differently than it is here in the U.S.   This is likely to encourage the adoption of dogs from shelters like the ASPCA who will benefit on all sides from your adoption. they own the ASPCA. They own the pet food companies, They own the veterinary facilities.  They own the pet insurance agencies.  There may not be many avenues for pets that don’t profit the corporations that own everything.


But there is a way.


Dementia aside, why does donating to rescues help the value of your home and perhaps the home you might inherit from your aging parents?


Local rescues are not owned by the large pet industry cartel, while the ASPCA is owned by them.  The large corporations who are buying everything you ever loved and turning it into their own profitable revenue stream.


They are also swooping in to buy the houses for sale in your town so they can create false increased in the value of real estate in your area.  That is a different story.


So donating to local rescues is one way you can help dismantle corporate schemes.


What do local rescues have to do with your house value?


Locally run rescues, run by volunteers who work day and night to help dogs find homes, also often also discover other civil situations like child abuse, and drug rings, abanndonment issues, elderly abuse, death, and other things that often go unreported in your community.


These chronic crime issues affect the value of your home.  They affect the success rates of your local schools, and thus the value of your home.


When these issues are neglected by overworked police force, the local rescues bring light to them and give local law enforcement a way to investigate.


How can you remove your dog from the corporate lifecycle?


  1. Feed a raw diet - the big corporations have not yet bought out the commercial raw food companies in this country.  Although they have bought them in Australia. Purina has a raw food dog food line Down Under.  Feeding commercially prepared raw diet ensures that your dog gets all the minerals and vitamins it needs in a diet that mimics what it would have eaten in the wild or closer to their evolutionary diets.

  2. Get your rescued dog adjusted regularly by a certified animal chiropractor.  Find one at www.acesalumni.com.

  3. Why the adjustments?  Most animal chiropractors are solo doctors so not corporation affiliated.  They can recommend for you how to be wise to symptoms that might cause your pet issues so you can avoid needing the corporate vet hospital.  In dog rescues where dogs are adjusted monthly, fewer dogs are returned after adoption.  The rescues saved money because dogs didn’t fight as often, and had fewer illnesses that required veterinary care.

  4. The adjustment helps your new dog to acclimate to its new environment better, faster.

  5. Rescues that required animal chiropractic availability before adopting out dogs also saw fewer returns.

  6. Sit on the board of your local rescue and advocate for dogs to get routine chiropractic care as a means of helping them acclimate to new environments.

  7. Sit on your county and state boards to advocate for local support for local rescues.  They support your local law enforcement.


As urban sprawl moves further and further into rural America, more dogs end up being dumped into small town communities where their local rescues struggle to save and manage them.  The fringe that moves further out of cities often brings with it the same chronic crime situations that our local rescues encounter when they assist abused and abandoned dogs.  Putting more pressure on rescues to spend precious resources.


When your local house values suddenly sky rocket, know that the corporations are behind it and coming for your small town. They will find ways to monetize even your best furry friends.  Cut them off by supporting your local rescues.
