Do I detect some winging and moaning about the lack of interest, compassion and people just generally interested in the plight of this situation? If so I have to disagree, people are just a little shocked that something so ridiculous could go on under peoples noses without anyone knowing about it. Obviously these people are loonies, loonies with a heart but none the less, of another planet for hoarding intense ranchlike numbers of animals without consideration for upkeep.
Not everyone can help, physically or financially, but it doesn't make a reaction any less worthy than those who do, not everyone wants a dog, what would you prefer? People adopt dogs they don't want to quash this disaster in the process creating another.
Shooting dogs is the way dogs are put down in the real working world, any farm, many working dogs, collies, greyhounds, rat dogs, bloodhounds, it has been the way to humanely kill dogs of no use since people have had the knowledge it is nicer to kill some animals rather than let them suffer, so I'm unsure what that rant is about really.
Anyway, I hope those that made it, make it to good homes, those thatcould get stuck in and helped out deserve medals, there is huge appreciation for you guys out there.
