In our city, there were not even vaccination requirements in the 70's, there was no animal shelter. Things have improved, and we can't give up. We have to keep preaching ... if we only motivate ONE person to alter their animal in all our years and decades of talking about it, think of all the tens of thousands of animals that will eventually save.
    As is usually the case, I could have written the above.

    Never give up the fight, people. Never. I 'preach' it nearly several times a week...it just comes up. I work it in to convos all the time.

    Not ONLY is it BYB, pet stores, etc., it is ALL breeding. And, I may take some heat for that. But, EVERY single animal willingly brought into this world furthers the overpopulation.

    Until there is a home for every animal, no animals should be bred.

    Unfortunately that will never happen. Prohabition would stand a better chance of being reinstated, than any kind of law regarding the breeding of animals.

    Again, I will continue in the fight to end all breeding. I don't have much of a defeatist bone in my body.
