WHY YOU CAN'T FIND A GOOD HOME FOR EVERY ONE
Don't worry little guy....we'll find you a home
Let's face it....if there were enough good homes there
would be no Humane Societies!
Do you believe you aren't adding to the pet overpopulation
problem if you find good homes for all your pet's puppies
or kittens? Then consider this:
Suppose there are 10 families in your community that
want puppies and can provide good homes for them, but there are 15 puppies who need
good homes. When each of the 10 families takes a puppy, there will be 5 "leftover" puppies
who have no future except humane euthanasia.
Then suppose you let your dog have a litter of 5 puppies.
There are now 20 puppies in the community who need good homes...but still only 10 good
homes available. Even if you manage to place every one of your five puppies with one of the
ten available homes, there are now 10 leftover puppies where before there were only 5.
You've created more animals, but you haven't created more homes-just taken some homes
away from other puppies and kittens, dogs and cats currently in shelters. By allowing your
pet to breed, you've increased the number of puppies that will have to be euthanized because
no one wants them.
Until breeding is limited to the point where there are more than enough good homes
available for all the puppies and kittens being born in your community, you can't find a good
home for every one!
