It depends on what rescue organization they are in. Many rescue groups and some shelters have no-kill policies. Others will euthanize a dog, with each shelter having its own guidelines.

How do they put dogs down at animal shelters?

Putting dogs down is a last resort and it only happens if dogs have no chance of getting a home or the shelter is overcrowded and they feel that this dog/cat has been here too long it will be euthanized or put to sleep it is painless and it is usually done by the dog putting on fa mask and they will put a gaseous drug into it and the dog will breathe it in and go to sleep

How long does a dog stay at a pound before it is killed?

In high kill animal shelters, the dogs are kept for a maximum of 9 days before they are euthanized. they give a 9 day frame either for the rightful owner to claim the animal back or to see if it can be adopted. Sadly, most of the animals are euthanized. Especially, pregnant dogs and small puppies are euthanized right away. They have absolutely no chance of survival in these shelters.
