There are groups that transport to other states that need more...I have concerns about that as well but at least it is not coming from another country. In my mind, to hell with people who want one that they could find here...makes me bad? OK..I will wear the bad badge with pleasure. I am sick to my stomach over the amount of dogs we kill here. |
Linda the 300,000 dogs that were reported are from I assume all over the place, and not just from Canada. As I have stated I have yet to find the stats from Dept of Agriculture in the USA.
And while Ontario represents at least 30% of the population of Canada and Toronto by far the largest city, I was quoting numbers from Toronto, not all of Canada.
And where is the 2.7 million dogs euthanized coming from? What is the breakdown of dogs euthanized and for what reason? Are these audited numbers?
