Did you pay for this puppy or were they giving them away? We have a terrible problem in my area with people who give away the kittens and puppies that their unspayed female had. Then the babies end up at the shelter at about 6 months of age or they get dumped in my backyard.
They aren't breeders. They are offspring that result when people are too ignorant to get their pets spayed or neutered even though there is a low cost program that is always available. I have lost count of how much money I have spent getting these drop offs healthy, spayed or neutered and then finding new homes. Others seem to be able to turn their heads and say it is not their problem. They say I'm nuts for doing it but I don't know how to just look away. The no kill shelter is almost always on overflow so I can watch them freeze to death or do something. |
