Maybe I'm naive, but most rescue organizations I know, rescue, do vaccinations, spay/neuter, micro-chip and place dogs. Yes, they make some money to cover their expenses and allow them to buy food, and make emergency trips to "get" a dog that might be on the kill list or in an auction.
Why is this so controversial? Because puppy millers might be dumpting their puppies in the auctions?? I agree with bans on selling dogs in pet stores. That would eliminate 95% of the puppy mills.
I know that when I have food my dogs don't like, or extra blankets and toys, I take them over to BARC which is an animal rescue and they are always appreciative.
I contribute to any and all fund raisers for the biewers, because the bylaws state the dogs will be spayed and neutered. IMHO if the seller of the biewers to the auctions, or rescues can be identified, they need to be outted.... |
