[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am gobsmacked by how many people on here think that dogs should be euthanized. The movement to treat animals humanely actually preceded and informed the movement to end domestic abuse. If past is prologue, you are a short step away from promoting the euthanization of humans. I am not equating dogs with people, just pointing out that the way we treat animals matters. People who don't have empathy for animals likely don't have empathy for humans.

This thread is one of the saddest I have ever read and makes me fearful of where our society is headed.[/quote]

Nobody's saying to just put down dogs for the fun of it.

But if dogs don't have owners and caretakers that are responsible with them and respectful of others... the solution is NOT to have poorly behaved dogs everywhere, or people bringing their pets with them everywhere. Personally I think people should be required to have lots of training before they are allowed to adopt a dog. [/quote]

I heard a conversation earlier this week where 2 people were advocating the same for having children. These are backwards steps for a progressive society.

Why is requiring training for owners before adopting a dog, a "backwards step for a progressive society?"

What's your solution for explosion of poorly behaved dogs and irresponsible owners? Nothing? Anything?
