Dog Shelters

Dognuts · 07-05-2011, 05:02 PM

Food prices are increasing, and our climate is rapidly changing. I’m not a preacher of global warming but I hope we ever change and let compassion warm our hearts. The amount of dogs taken to the shelters each year is increasing by the millions. The excuse is not having plenty of food to feed them or lack of resources... There are very little chances for these dogs to be adopted and euthanasia is applied. Our world is changing. Dog shelters have always been there but now they are increasing. I’m not talking by experience since I haven’t lived for so long to see the difference. However, statistics speak for me with a laud voice pleading to every soul on this glove to do something about it. I hope we become the “doers” and accept the challenge to stop one less painful thing from happening to these poor dogs. Is it enough keeping your dog healthy and caring for your kids? That extra slide of bread shouldn’t go to waist. Use it before it spoils. Bread crumbs are a banquet for a homeless dog. We want better education and better cars, nice clothes, and snacks in our cookie jars. What about the less fortunate? Do we ever think about them? And share what we don’t wear…I have shared many times yet Is it enough? Is it all we can do? We can always do more and find ways to be a light in someone’s gloomiest darkness.

Hello Dognuts,
Although each and every ONE of us share your concern about the care and happiness of all dogs, it seems to me that you may have become slightly political here on a Labradoodle forum. Plus, I see no signs of you owning a Labradoodle. Your 2 posts really don't depict the conversations we have going on here.
Believe me, I could "go political" very easily.......but we must refrain from doing so.
Once again, I appreciate your concern. But, you must be able to share stories or discuss Labradoodles in some way, shape or form here. For example, your reference to Global Warming has nothing to do with what we talk about here and your last post on are our dogs happy, should be evident if you read our posts.
I'm sort of giving you a public warning, because I see members don't quite know how to respond to you.

maybe better suited for the general discussion forum?

though we love our dogs..and depend so much on them for our own metal
well being..they are still dogs..

we do what we can about educating dog owners to alter their dogs to prevent unwanted litters leading to a ever over crouding of dog shelters..

OMG!!!if only we took as much attention to over population in our 3rd world countries..

euthanizing animals to control population..what..or who next??
