It was decided that it would be better to rescue those dogs that were psychologically sturdy rather than having to euthanize them in order to save a dog that might not be able to be easily placed in a home. <br /><br />This is the kind of thing that, unfortunately, causes a lot of pot-stirring and gossip among rescuers who feel that every dog, no matter their temperament, should be saved. But when you are talking about the vast numbers in a case like this, there ends up being not enough room for even the more solid dogs, because there are far more dogs involved than there are vacancies. (And if anyone doubts that, consider that the Humane Society of Missouri is still looking for organizations that can take on fostering of the dogs they took in the same bust in July.)Ken Fosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07021435284463986549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771968732506890560.post-16076052297891877892009-11-20T19:20:39.802-08:002009-11-20T19:20:39.802-08:00so houndy girl was killed b/c she was afraid of wo...so houndy girl was killed b/c she was afraid of women??? what the hell is that about?!?!didihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02427567749702131523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771968732506890560.post-64624018751888127292009-10-29T20:35:04.303-07:002009-10-29T20:35:04.303-07:00I am so sorry to hear about the losses but it is a...I am so sorry to hear about the losses but it is almost bittersweet because with each loss arises more opportunities for the ones still waiting and we know those who were lost got a chance and some love they had never seen beforeKari in Alaskahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08555458287778413718noreply@blogger.com
