there is no feel good solution PBH, but you must agree, overpopulation is a major factor. now how do we solve it? city wide bans?? nope, that dont work. make it more difficult for breeders and owners?? that wont either, its gonna happen as long as people love their dogs SOOOOO MUCH that theyre sure theyd make wonderful puppies. so again i say, humanely put them down where they more than likely will end up anyway, shelters and pounds. yes it sux, but you cant compare this to city wide bans man. im not saying go door to door taking animals

I understand what is being said, very much so. However, as long as BYB and self proclaimed "reputable breeders" and the likes continue pumping the dogs out this crisis will never be fixed. It might slowly shrink the problem (I'm not convinced it would shrink the crisis to a smaller level though) but the problem itself will go on. Also, advocating for people's rights should also include the private rescues and shelters. I asked, why should they not receive the same rights as everybody else?

As for killing the Rescue/Shelter dogs as I said in my previous post is without DNA there is no way of knowing for sure which ones have and don't have APBT in them so by killing them you're advocating killing practically any dog that enters the rescues adn shelters and I still don't see this as a solution or a workable solution.

Like I said, you can't fix part of the problem and call it a solution.
