Spay and neuter your pets

Bigger and better shelters are not the answer.
More and more nonprofit rescue groups are not the answer.
Slamming “the pound” for being the pound is not the answer.
The answers have not changed:
Spay and neuter your pets.
Stop the indiscriminate breeding, selling, buying, exploitation, and dumping of companion animals.
Strengthen humane laws and prosecute abusers and neglecters.
Ban puppy mills and regulate the living hell out of backyard breeders.
Incentivize people to keep caring for their companions at home even during tough economic and personal times.
 
Projecting blame for shelter killing solely on those charged by the community with cleaning up the mess does not address the source of the mess:
irresponsibility within the community.
 
(E. H. Graben, 2013)
