an animal shelter kills dogs/cats if they are out of room or low on funds
personally I would not want the job but I do not loose any sleep over the issue

If I could snap my fingers and give them all good homes I'd do it. I don't spend my days worrying about it but I'm not thrilled with the thought either. Not the shelter's fault though. They do what they can with what they have.

unfortunately the animals suffer because of irresponsible pet owners.some people have valid reasons for taking pets to the shelters but most are just piss poor owners.it bothers me that they have to be put down to make room but hard choices have to be made sometimes.

the "blue haired people" in Memfrica are crying about the animals at the shelter there being put down, maybe they need to dip into their pockets deeper or take some of the animals home

guarantee you the ones griping are ones who never offer to house the animals and have never sent a penny to the shelter to help them out.

It doesn't bother me one bit.In the county I grew up in there wasn't a shelter and poeple had a bad habit of dropping dogs off on the sides of the road I lived on and our driveway.I've seen alot and I mean alot of stray dogs that was so pittiful looking from starving to death.We had alot come out to our house at the end of a long gravel drive and we would always put them down.Pour things would be ate up with mange and ticks,almost felt good for putting them out of their missery. I don't like to kill living things just to kill it,thats not the way I was raised,but if you can't feed an animal or give it to someone who can feed it,then putting them down is the only logical thing to do.

My dad told me that when he was a kid in a coal camp he knew people who would put kittens in a sack with rocks and throw em in the river to get rid of them. He said they couldn't afford ammo to shoot em and didn't have animal shelters and weren't able to get them fixed. Sounds pretty rough to me, but I guess they didn't want them to get overpopulated...

As an ex animal control officer who spent some time "behind the scenes" at an animal shelter, it bothers me a little. The shelter had a special room where all euthanasia was done. One the door, they had a huge sign that read "all dogs go to heaven". What bothered me the most was when I would see a dog that I knew was a sweet dog and would've made someone a great pet enter the room....or puppies.
I will say this. I grew up in the country and know the power of a well placed bullet for humane euthanasia, but the stuff they gave those dogs was so fast it was unreal. Painless and very, very fast. Until you see it first hand, its hard to comprehend a liquid can do that.
The biggest problem I have with it, is those shelters that claim to be "no kill". In all honesty, very few are.
