Billy Goat Gruff

All over the country, people and pets are feeling the effects of our nation's housing crisis and the pain of home foreclosures.

Thousands of new pets are entering the adoption system each month, and shelters are struggling to provide food and care for each one.

Yet another reason why drastic measures are needed to revamp foreclosure laws.
