I wonder how many other people think/thought the same thing.
When I read somewhere that thousands and thousands of animals are euthanized/killed - and then I don't know what happens to their bodies -
Sorry for this being a downer, but people need to KNOW!!!
DO SO AGREE, many do have no kill policy but o/here so many dogs dumped/given up are staffordshire bull terriers ,many of whom sadly have been so treated that they are not safe so are PTS.
Do plse try and support these shelters/rescues by helping ,physically if near OR donating a quilt/other items that could be used by them to fundraise.
The education of owners is CRUCIAL and spay/castration vouchers can be given to avoid unwanted litters.
BUT whilst humans are banging eight bells out of one another too sadly animals do not have a chance.
