No one is trying to get anyone down. At least I hope not! There probably isn't anyone that's been involved with dogs for any length of time that hasn't found themselves in a similar situation.

The pet overpopulation disaster is overwhelmingly out of control. The only way to find a solution is through discussion and sharing of thoughts and ideas. Even those that post opposing thoughts have the same goal. The overall welfare of the animals!!!!

As far as disposing of stillborn puppies in the trash; once again that's a matter of individual preference and wouldn't be an issue for many people. Disposing of live newborns in that manner isn't a rational choice for anyone!
