As a volunteer at kill shelter I can say that they are both good and bad. They are good as the dogs are out of danger that running loose can cause. But depending on the personnel at the pound they can be very bad places for dogs. If you have a staff that cares for dogs, that is the best situation. If not, like the one I volunteer at, it can be as dangerous to their longevity as running loose. Pounds in themselves are not good or bad, it is the people who run them that determines the good or bad condition's. Some dogs with medical problems they may get treatment for the first time at a well run pound, and they may get spay or neutered and make the dog much healthier as a result. But as I volunteer at a shelter that the management favors Cats over Dogs, the dogs get the dirty end of the stick when they come in.
