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.
bcuz no one adopts them but more dogs are coming in
Too many actually. So many dogs are euthanized monthly its a wonder why people still bother to breed dogs when there are so many without a home
too many. :(
Is it just dogs who do that? My 14 year old son seems to do it too.
they will die
Sadly, thousands of dogs are put down a day. So over 1,000,000 dogs have to be put down a year. Its better than to watch them suffer even though it is the hardest decision you'll have too make.
Unfortunately, the most common number is 4-6 million animals a year are euthanized in shelters a year, though other sources will tell you anywhere from 1-2 million, all the way to 12-25 million. This is just the number put down in shelters and doesn't include the millions that die of neglect, car accidents, etc. Quite depressing, isn't it?
It depends... how many homes are there for the unwanted babies? NONE. GET. A. LIFE. DO NOT BREED!!!!!!!!!! ADOPT!!!! THESE PUPPIES WILL BE EUTHANIZED IN A SHELTER BECAUSE NOBODY WANTS MORE DOGS IN THIS WORLD!!!! THERE ARE TOO MANY NEEDING HOMES ALREADY!!!! God.
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
don't get a pitbull pup they grow into dangerous dogs
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.
No, that is a good age to breed dogs.
