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.

"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.
