 | | Barked: Mon Nov 23, '09 10:19am PST | |  | |  | | no there isn't anything wrong with seeking a dog through other avenues besides a shelter or rescue but I can't for a minute believe out of the 2 million or so that are euthanized a person can't find a dog in a shelter that appeals to them? or a breed specific rescue?
and this statement you made
that's assuming that the person breeding the animals doesn't do the right thing by finding homes for the offspring and/or putting them down.
is wrong
for every puppy that your dog brings into this world and you find a home for, a home is taken away from a dog that is already in a shelter.
another thing you said is
i don't have a problem putting down animals that are not going to be homed properly
also the fact that you have no qualms about euthing because there aren't enough homes really bothers me. It is a thing that needs to be done for sure, thanks to those that do not spay/neuter, and allow dogs to breed that have no reason to breed, but the day it stops bothering me I will be looking into pyschiatric care!
And yes you weren't asking for opinions, but to start this thread you invited them. |  |  | |  |

If this is an apartment where dogs are not allowed why would a dog be allowed to be on the property tied up and howling?
There is an organization called Dogs Deserve Better that works on getting dogs off tie outs or pens and into loving homes where they belong! I will never understand why people are so cruel as to get a dog and then make it stay out. 
Hopefully a neighbor will call animal control and the poor little thing will be taken back to the shelter where it will have a chance of being adopted into a loving home! | | | | |

Got food?

| | Barked: Tue Nov 10, '09 9:40am PST | | | | | | I would call the vet if I were you. I give Toby Zyrtec because the Benadryl just doesn't work for him, but my vet said he could also take Claritin, but I would call your vet and ask what dosage would be for your dog. | | | | |
