How does the Humane Society decide what animals to kill?
If they have to put down animals due to over crowding they would eliminate the ones least likely to be placed first. Not a pleasant job.Please spay and neuter your pets to help avoid this.
How do you put the word humane the adj in a sentence?
She was a humane person who had great compassion for all animals.
Does the Humane Society have legal counsel for animals that are put up for adoption with false background information where the adoptive incurs expensive medical expenses as a result of false informaton?
No they do not. Animals up for adoption from the humane society or shelter often have no past and any that is given is only based on the old owners word. You can return the dog and get your money back.
What is the difference between a county shelter and Humane Society?
Humane society are no kill while a dog pound will kill the animal Actually that is wrong, Humane Society's do kill, you would have to check with the individual Humane Society to find out whether they kill or not. Not all pounds/shelters kill either, many are working towards a no kill approach, which is good as long as animals are not left waiting for years in a kennel. Most shelters/pounds work with rescue groups to get the animals out but some do not and will not. That is when you start getting into the political game that some heads of Animal Control play, they don't want to be questioned or challenged on their practices of killing, so they ban rescues.
Do they put down animals that have been at the Humane Society too long?
Unfortunately, yes. This is WHY Bob Barker and Betty White have been advocating spaying or neutering all pets all these years. There are just too many feral dogs and cats to provide proper care for all of them.
Does the American Humane Society consider euthanasia appropriate?
The mission statement of the American Humane Society states that its aims are to "focused on preventing cruelty, neglect and exploitation of animals". This seems to say that they will do anything they can to prevent animals being abused or neglected. They probably don't think euthanasia is appropriate, but what other choice do they have? Unfortunately, it seems like euthanasia is necessary. One of the programs that the Humane Society runs is called "Getting to Zero". This program has the aim of ending euthanasia of healthy and treatable animals. This rather shows that the Humane Society does not consider euthanasia appropriate in some circumstances. They are trying to reduce the 3.7 million healthy dogs and cats that are euthanised annually to zero. That seems like a pretty huge goal, and one that shows the Society doesn't think euthansia is appropriate. We have developed into a throw-away society. We throw away food, we throw away electrical appliances when they don't work any more, and we even throw away our pets (not to mention our children). Euthanasia by the humane society is the only way to deal with all the unwanted pets and those that have been so badly neglected or abused that they can never live a "normal" life. If the Humane Society had choice, they would not put down innocent pets. But there is no choice. Not while people regard life so cheaply.
Where are the most animals put down?
As a collection, the various dog pounds, shelters and humane organizations euthanize the most animals every year - they have to manage their on-site populations of abandoned animals, and in many cases they have no choice but to euthanize for either humane reasons (severe illness, traumatic injury, etc) or for population control reasons (no room, unlikely to be adopted, etc.).
Are the animals put to sleep if no one buys them in a certain amount of time at the Circle of Friends Humane Society in Grand Forks North Dakota?
No. The Circle of Friends Humane Society in Grand Forks, North Dakota only euthanizes pets in cases of extreme aggression or extreme illness. There are no deadlines for any of the pets sheltered there. Some pets are at the shelter for a long time because they are committed to finding homes for as many animals as possible.
What is a Humane way to put a horse down?
My preference is to have a qualified veterinarian euthanize the horse.

Yes, you can.If you'd rather have your dog die of old age,instead of being put to sleep, take him to the humane society.
How many animals get put down a week?
It depends how many animals are needed to be put down.
Where do you take puppies you don't want?
Your local Humane society or animal rescue shelter may have to euthanize (put to sleep) as many as 40% of their animals, so PLEASE put up notices around your neighborhood, your local grocery store, etc, for people to adopt your pups.
