Due to the popularity of harm-free shelters, the numbers of shelters that allow killing is on the decline. Many states are gradually phasing out such shelters in favor of the more humane harm-free shelters.

Where are shelters that kill?

Shelters that practice euthanasia, often referred to as "kill shelters," can be found in various regions, particularly where animal overpopulation is a significant issue or funding for no-kill alternatives is limited. These shelters may euthanize animals due to space constraints, health issues, or behavioral concerns when they are unable to find homes for them in a timely manner. It's important to note that practices vary widely by location, and many shelters are working to transition to no-kill policies. Advocates encourage adoption and support for no-kill shelters to help reduce the number of animals euthanized.

Are animals living in shelters in Canada being killed after a certain length of stay and if so by what method?

There are sadly tons and tons of shelters that humanely euthanize (Usually it is an injection into a vein) animals after a certain length of stay. There are so many animals that are going into shelters than there are being adopted. However there are also no kill shelters that will keep an animal as long as it takes to find it a home. If you have to bring an animal to a shelter please find out if it is a no kill shelter if it is find somewhere else that isn't.
