This article was posted by Pet Search, but applies everywhere: Pet Search I feel like the general public has no idea what the animal crisis currently is. So here's an update: - The animal shelters are full- The rescues are full- No kill shelters are full - Adoptions are at an all time low- Intake is at an all time high- Euthanasia for space is at an all time high Breeders are surrendering ENTIRE LITTERS, parents included. They arent selling. Puppies, pregnant moms, and good young pets are being euthanized daily. There is no space. The chances that there is a "really nice" home just waiting for your dog or cat are slim. Spay/neuter your pet. Train your dog. They are fine being home while you work. They sleep most of the day anyway. There isn't magically someone who has more time or can take better care. Stop trying to rehome them or surrendering them to the shelter because you don't have time. If you need help, there are organizations that can help with food and possibly medical. And/or direct you to an organization that can. Please keep your pet. -Signed an exhausted rescue volunteerPicture of Tuna… Tuna has been in foster care for over 3 years… he is 5 years old, good with other dogs, cats and kids.Fully vetted, neutered and microchipped Zero applicationsPet Search KL #3301Washington PA 15301
