United States - Each year on July 31st and December 2nd, National Mutt Day is observed across the United States. National Mutt Day encourages us to embrace, save and celebrate mixed breed dogs.
Desperately longing for a new home, millions of loving and healthy mixed breed dogs in shelters across the United States are waiting for someone to come and adopt them.
HOW TO OBSERVE
Visit a shelter, if you are unable to adopt a dog, you can always volunteer. Post on social media using #NationalMuttDay and encourage others to join in.
HISTORY
National Mutt Day was created in 2005 by Celebrity Pet Expert and Animal Welfare Advocate, Colleen Paige. This day is celebrated on both December 2 and July 31 of each year.

Dexter, Missouri - Dexter Police Department ticketed 4 motorists for not wearing seat belts during the Nov. 25 Click It or Ticket mobilization. Law enforcement agencies throughout Missouri participated in this statewide effort to get more motorists to buckle up — and save more lives.
During the enforcement effort, officers issued a total of 4 traffic citations including 1 citation for driving while revoked/suspended, 1 for uninsured motorist and 3 other traffic citations.
Despite evidence proving the benefits of wearing a seat belt, nearly one in five Missouri motorists are still not making it click. Even more concerning, six out of ten Missourians killed in traffic crashes are unbuckled.
“Seat belts are your single best defense in a crash,” stated LT Joshua Benton, Dexter PD. “We will continue to encourage drivers to make a simple, smart choice to buckle up and Arrive Alive.”
