The number of animals being dumped is out of control

LET'S GET REAL!

I’m sorry, dog lovers. It’s about to get real. We're in an epidemic when it comes to dogs being abandoned. Not a week goes by when we don’t hear the rumblings of debates about No-Kill vs Kill shelters, pro-life or life at all costs, and I’m not going to lie - I’m getting tired. Tired of explaining how we need as many well-run shelters for animals as possible. Right now, we're fighting a losing battle. It’s exhausting always begging for funds, begging people to adopt our babies, receiving abuse daily from people who've never helped an animal shelter in their life, but believe we can and must make miracles happen and find their dog a home by the end of the week because they're suddenly moving to Australia.
