Default The mindset of No-Kill at any cost...
This might not be a popular posts, but they hysteria behind no-kill can be mind boggling.

From what I can understand, last fall a pit bull was hit by a car and taken in by a no-kill rescue group. The dog was in bad shape so there was fundraising to cover medical expenses and the dog was put into a foster home. As the dog has healed it seems that certain human aggressive behaviors have emerged with the dog biting and snapping at a variety of people.

The rescue has now said the will be euthanizing the dog unless another suitable rescue can be found...no-kill advocates are now livid and saying the rescue's non-profit status should be revoked.

A no-kill advocacy FB page is really after them but what amazes me is how many people are okay with an aggressive pit bull being rehomed. Comments include that "all dogs bite", "You want to kill a dog for behavior issues", "Cesar Millan would have a pack of dead dogs if he gave up on the aggressive ones"...Quite a few people have suggested Cesar or Best Friends would be more than willing to help this dog.

Knowing the amount of pit bulls with amazing temperament and physical health that are euthanized everyday, it just saddens me that people are so out of touch. I appreciate the effort in saving a life, but I am not in favor of an unstable dog being rehomed.

The individual dog had a FB page put it looks like that might have been taken down as it was pretty out of control once the mention of euthanasia came out...here are screen shots posted by one of the advocates with plenty of experience with aggressive dogs that now wants this rescue shut down.

Thoughts?!?
