How many dogs are there anyway???
Good question Ms. Mini! The whole thing is pretty confusing isn't it?
Terry, Daisy, and Delilah
I still can't figure it all out...:(
Your buyers are not the boss, the seller is. Make sure you inform them of all the consequences of not spaying; cancer, roaming male dogs, being in heat as a whole. You obviously don't have a puppy contract. I agree with all of the people on this board. I think you are confusing the meaning of backyard breeder. It has nothing to do with the dogs actually being in your back yard, and everything to do with the reasoning for breeding and the poor caretaking methods. By the way, it wasn't until like the third page that we found out you were deaf, and they were yelling at you long before then, no discrimination there. I also do kind of hold you responsible for the death of the other dog, did you just sit there and watch it get sicker and sicker without doing anything?!
My GAWD girl.... you use your impairment as an excuse,, that initself is inexcuseable,,,
you cant afford treatment and so a pup dies needlessly??
youre breeding siblings?????
You say you got them shots in one post,, then in the next breath,, you say your GETTING them the next day?
You claim to remove yourself from the board and in the same post,, warn us to not post anything negative and demand to see something good when you get back later??
If I lived near you,, I would report you!
I saw you are removing yourself from here, but if you see this, accord, PLEASE please PLEASE read this all!!!!!

It is not your fault, and no one is blaming you, you are just misinformed. Here are some quotes from this article.
"'I look at the list, and some nights it's 20 dogs, 15 cats. My God, that's too many. That's the sad part. But where would they go?"'
"26,000 of them dogs and cats, are impounded. Of the 30,000, about 3,000 are adopted out and 3,500 are taken in by other shelters and rescue facilities, if they have room. Perhaps 5,000 more are reclaimed by their owners. The rest? You do the math. "People have to understand we don't have a choice," says Melanie Sobel, director of program services at Animal Care and Control. "This is an open-door shelter, we're open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. People just don't realize the magnitude."'
And here they are talking about euthenizing dogs, just in one shelter, one of about 4 or 5 for this area.
The smallest could be 10, but they average 25," she says. "It could go as high as 35. I don't think I've ever gone more than 40. And I don't think I've ever seen a day of zero. Not with the number of impoundments we do. That'd mean every dog we impounded was perfect for adoption. And that just doesn't happen."
I really hope you choose to stay around here and learn and continue to let the wonderful members of pet talk educate you. We all understand that these quotes are the reality of this country, and that it is by all means not pretty. Please do your part to eventually stop it.

What do ya do? This seems to be a common attitude unfortunately.The more you try to educate, the more they get defensive.

What makes me the sickest about it is that no matter how much good help and advice she has been given, she is only getting angrier by the minute. Are these dogs any better off than they were to begin with? I'm really not sure. Accord: You tell everyone to stop acting like they're above you. You're the one that is acting like you're above everybody. Why are you so defensive? I think you're the one that started all the negativity so be careful of what you're accusing others of doing. These are just helpful suggestions, questions, and concerns. Something is very clear to me and many others obviously, you are seriously confused. I believe there are many more issues in your life that are causing this reaction from you. You have contradicted yourself so many times it's hard to believe. Do you understand the purpose of this board? Am I right in saying(among other things)that yesterday you were broke so bad you could barely get by and today you're working and making $16 an hour. What you've been saying is, for the most part, making very little sense. Are you aware of this? Anyway.......congrats on your job and I truly hope everything works out for you. God Bless your beautiful dogs. What can you buy in jail? Terry(D & D's Mom)
