In the United States, about half of all pets put in shelters are killed. The other half are either reunited with their families or are adopted by new families.
The goal of no-kill shelters is to put pets into loving homes. Until that time, they may live at the shelter or in a foster home.
About 20 in each shelter across the US. In a year, 3-4 million.
It is difficult to give an accurate answer - many hundreds of thousands of animals are put to sleep each year, but the number will vary from country to country. "Too many" is my personal answer, as too many pets are being bred from, which can produce animals with poor health and temperaments, or people owning pets but are ignorant to the animal's needs, so will put them to sleep or put into shelters, where most are put to sleep in order to create more room for new animals being brought in.
When looking for a shelter for a pet that you can no longer care for - it is best to specifically look for "No Kill Shelters." These shelters specialize in taking in pets and do not euthanize the animals if an immediate adoption is not possible.
It is estimated that millions of animals are euthanized in shelters each year, with the exact number varying depending on factors such as location and shelter policies. Efforts are being made to reduce euthanasia rates through increased adoption, spaying/neutering, and education.
