[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Someone keeps saying 600K+ dogs are put down annually.  If we removed from those counts, the sick animals, the bad-tempered animals, the pit mixes, I wonder what the real # would be.  My guess is WAY significantly less.  So instead of attacking the people who don't want to rescue, attack the asshats who have caused this mess - the irresponsible owners of breeds no one wants.[/quote]

Forgive me for not just taking your word on it that your numbers are correct, or that your definition of “undesirable“ animals is shared by all either.  [/quote]

They aren't my numbers and what I did wonder, again, was stated it was based on a guess.  (Anyone not blinded by your same passion can see that "pit mix" is the overwhelming descriptor used in sheltered animals.)

Also, pretty much everyone on this thread who have specified what they don't want has agreed on the undesirable - pit mixes and other aggressive breeds.  Are you doing anything to lessen the numbers of those specific breeds overwhelming the system?  The ones you desperately want us to take in to our homes?[/quote]
