[Tink]

I've seen similar information said about PETA in various places.
I think they're extremists and I seriously do not trust the intentions or policies of many shelters because of it.

Peta would love to eliminate pet ownership. What better way to accomplish this than to euthanise large numbers of dogs and de-sex all the rest?

I know of someone a couple hrs from me who claims to do rescue and often "volunteers" to take in and re-home dogs for those who need to re-home them. After watching her for a length of time I see a pattern... she only offers to take dogs that have resale value. She claims to be doing this for the animals... so why's she not interested in the 10 yr old mutts? So even her motives are not innocent.

I don't mean to get off topic here, but my point is many who claim to have noble purposes are simply in it to make money OR have their own hidden agenda. We need to research for ourselves who is legit and who is not. I personally don't doubt any of what was in the original post.
