   Extractions: quote from his holiness the Dalai Lama Millions of young, healthy, beautiful companion animals are euthanized needlessly each year because there are too many pets and not enough homes or people interested in providing food, water, shelter, medical care and LOVE to these animals. ANIMAL OVERPOPULATION IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM. Animal cruelty cases and violence directed at humans have increased alarmingly. Studies show animal abuse is often the first step toward violence against humans.

Not only do they have a great selection of adult animals for adoption, but they also have kittens and puppies, even purebred animals. In fact, on average, purebreds account for about 25% to 30% of a shelter's dog population. Want to learn more? Get the Pets for Life e-newsletter. Enter e-mail address: Many pets at your local shelter are waiting for new homes because they were obtained by someone with unrealistic expectations of the time, effort, and money required to sustain a lifelong relationship with their pet. National figures indicate that about half of the animals in shelters must be euthanized for lack of homes. Animals at your local shelter are eager to find a new home and are just waiting for someone like you. You can depend on responsible shelters to screen the animals for sound health and temperament. When animals are relinquished by owners, the shelter staff makes every attempt to collect a thorough history of that pet. Then, while caring for animals, staff and volunteers try to learn as much as they can about these animals as well as those who come to the shelter as strays. Don't be discouraged if, when you first visit the shelter, there are no animals of the breed or type you want. Shelters receive new animals every day. Your shelter may also have a waiting list and can call you when an animal matching your preference becomes available. Before choosing your pet, you can even speak with an adoption counselor about whether your choice of a particular type or breed will be best for you.

    Extractions: Migratory Bird Treaty Act: How It Affects Shelters Overview of Recent Situation In the fall of 2000, a Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) agent began investigating The Washington Humane Society (WHS) after a much-publicized incident where northern mockingbirds attacked passersby near a State Department building. Responding to complaints about the attacks, a WHS employee removed and euthanized the birds. The FWS agent found that the Washington Humane Society, a private nonprofit organization contracted to perform animal control for the District of Columbia, did not have the required permits for handling migratory birds. Note that the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) is not affiliated with, nor is it a parent organization for, local humane societies, animal shelters, or animal care and control agencies. These are independent organizations, governed by their own bylaws and boards of directors (in the case of humane societies), or local ordinances and officials (in the case of animal care and control agencies). The HSUS does not operate or have direct control over any animal shelter. The HSUS recognizes that many animal care and control agencies are called upon to assist birds as part of their mission to prevent animal suffering. The need for a Federal permit to handle migratory birds has not been widely known; as a result, many agencies are inadvertently operating outside of the law. While the incident in Washington, DC is clearly regrettable, it was not an intentional act of negligence on the part of the Washington Humane Society. The HSUS hopes that this situation will encourage other agencies to become more informed regarding federal, state, and local laws that pertain to the services they provide for wildlife.

    Extractions: Study Finds the Top 10 Reasons for Pet Relinquishment Every day in communities across the US a bond is broken. It's the bond between people and their pets, resulting in millions of pets being surrendered to shelters each year. And little has been known about the reasons why until now. In a recent study conducted by the National Council on Pet Population Study and Policy (NCPPSP) and published in the July issue of the Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science (JAAWS) , researchers went into 12 selected animal shelters in the United States for one year to find out why. The results of the study show that the top seven reasons for relinquishment for both dogs and cats are the same. "These commonalties suggest that there may be similar ways to address relinquishment in dogs and cats," says Pam Burney, NCPPSP president. "For people who work in a shelter all day, there isn't always time to look at these issues. We have impressions of what's happening, but now we have objective data that will help us develop specific programs to address the issues that have been identified."
