People often ask us:
"What else can we do to help Straydog?"
Please help us find ways to get more people to come to this website, which we hope will make more people aware of the tragic overpopulation problem, currently being alleviated by the killing of healthy young (as well as older) dogs (and cats). We must make everyone aware of what must be done to stop the killing and solve the problem right now:
Changing the mindset of the vast majority of us humans to no-kill will mean we (all of us) will have to take care of the existing "surplus" in no-kill shelters like Straydog (continuing always to adopt out as many as we can) until there is no longer a surplus, which will happen when we get everyone to spay and neuter their pets.
With no-kill as our mindset everyone will very quickly realize how expensive it is to run no-kill shelters and how less expensive it will be to control population via spay and neuter rather than continuing to build more and more no-kill animal shelters. With no-kill as our mindset we will ultimately (and hopefully very quickly) eliminate the "surplus" of dogs (and cats) via the only acceptable method: Conception Control.
We will know we have achieved Conception Control when Killing is no longer our method of population control.
