Humane Society!

okay so i just read everything i wrote in the first message and i understand what your saying, i didnt write what i was thinking, or what exactly was going on, i can get ahead of myself sometimes! What i ment to say was i get mad at people who leave their pets places and end up being stuck in cages because the owners dont want to take care of them, i didnt mean to make it sound as though the humane society was bad for doing it, i ment to say that i was mad at the owners who mistreat their animals and then being stuck in cages at the humane society is what they get left with! Everything the humane society and ASPCA does is wonderful, even tho i dont like putting animals down because no one wants to adopt them, im just mad at the owners who take on such a responsibilty and then assume they can forget about their animal so it can fend for itself! (does that make better sense, sorry i just get ahead of myself)

Is this place the Humane Society or the Animal Shelter? For my county, it's the Animals Shelter and they end up with alot of community service people who are only there to serve their time and they don't give a s*** about the animals and are very rude sometimes. Just try and focus on the animals instead, they appreciate your time and love!

Now ya got it right!! If you want to be angry with someone make it the irresponsible owners (in most cases) that don't understand the responsibilities involved with being a pet owner and don't spay/neuter if responsible breeding isn't in the future.
My local SPCA is very much supported by the community and is building a new facility with a dog park, agility area, and wonderful facilities for the animals and it is a no kill facility. They work closely with the animal control facility and take in those dogs that are not claimed. Right now, they are at full capacity to the point that supporters are taking home dogs to foster until adoption process can be completed.
If you would just give your local ASPCA a chance I'm sure they would welcome your volunteerism. They may have had a bad day with an unusual day of drop-offs and were stressed out to the max. Give it a shot and if it doesn't work out then tell them and leave.
Good luck with the results!
