You are incorrect about rescues. There are breed only rescues and there are rescues that handle the mutts (your words) and every animal would have a chip that has the breeder/owner record on file.
Look, now of us have answers but clearly you are only shooting down idea's without thinking how we can change what is going on in this word.
Trust me, if breeders/owners were dumping over 5 MILLLION animals in the countryside to get out of the fines...they would be discovered ....and then could be charged with animal cruelty. 5 million didn't end up in a shelter at one shelter/rescue at one time. It happened one by one. If people know they are going to be hit with a fine, they will do what they can to avoid it. A dog is much easier to hide than a horse.
If you have watched any of the video's on puppymills and volume breeders you would understand why one system isn't perfect but we have no system right now. |
I have watched I wholehartedly understand the problem. Not everyone who responds on the net is not informed.
I am not shooting down ideas. I am warning you.....that what is good for the goose is good for the gander. You go imposing fines, laws, regulations, on the large scale breeder who can pay them, will run the reputable small scale breeder out of business. This is big government, and this is how our country is already, the big gets bigger, and the small gets choked out. Why would the dog world be any different.
