15 Adorable Wildlife Puppies for National Puppy Day
Ask anyone who knows me, and they’ll tell you that two of my favorite things are: 1) wildlife and 2) puppies. When I’m not at work helping protect the first, I can most often be found hanging out with my rescue puppy, Allister. So when I happened across the fact that March 23rd is National Puppy Day – smack dab in the middle of National Wildlife Week – I knew this blog needed to happen.
Here is my celebration of two great things about this world, wildlife and puppies, combined into one. Commence: Wildlife puppies!

Ways to Celebrate National Puppy Day
The unofficial holiday National Puppy Day was designed to encourage the adoption of orphaned puppies and dogs in shelters across the country, so this Friday…
- Consider making your next pet one you rescue from a shelter. Search Petfinder for dogs of all ages.
- Not able to make room for a new hound in your home? Donate money, supplies or time to a local shelter.
- Want to help National Wildlife Federation protect wildlife puppies? Symbolically adopt a wild animal baby.
And lastly, in repayment for some amazing photo research help from my coworker (and because I couldn’t resist)…
Sleepy Puppy
