Many people have discarded this idea because they're not in a money-spending zone. But, even small donations can help buy some supplies for the shelter. The money can buy supplies such as, food, treats, other food items, and bathing equipment. Some people also donate goods that could be useful to shelters, and sometimes they aren’t brand new. If you can’t afford to buy brand-new items, used items such as a towel can still be useful for various uses.

Matthew Bershadker claims in his article, “How to Fight a Puppy Mill,” that we can end the mass production of puppies by taking the “No Pet Store Puppies” pledge and confronting the government about possible bills regarding animal sales. Bershadker is the President & CEO of the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA). Even though Bershadker does explain the growth in governmental help related to the end of puppy mills, he does not elaborate on the ways in which an ordinary individual can be active in the protest. The race to end puppy mills is important since they are locations where dogs are breed continuously to supply pet stores with puppies and are harmful, both physically and mentally, to the dogs that are housed

Like hotels instead of kennels, braces to fix crooked teeth and other necessities that pet owners believe that they should have for their pet. For example in article “The Last Mewo” the Levering's paid fifteen thousands dollars even if they are in debt, low income, and going through health problem itself. This show us how they use money to save their pets just for few weeks instead of using the money for their own family issues.

In this way, no-kill shelters keep the animals happy and feeling cared for, which is important to an animal’s health. According to Ed Boks of Maricopa County, Arizona, in a nation where 43,400 animals are euthanized every year in Arizona alone, a pet’s life seems worthless, but no-kill shelters do not adopt that mentality. No-kill shelters nurture their animals in a world where no one else seems committed. Because no-kill shelters are not cost ineffective and negative, Ohio should institute no-kill shelters throughout the entire state. No-kill shelters profit from adoptions and save communities’ money by not participating in euthanasia procedures.

The bad is that most people still don’t realize that this is an issue, so they are doing nothing to make it better. They see that they’re doing nothing wrong, so of course they feel they have nothing to change or help. There are programs in Brevard County such as the humane society and other small organizations that have their main goal of protecting animals and making sure they’re safe where they’re at.

Animal overpopulation of companion animals has been a huge issue in the US for a long time. I didn’t realize how big of an issue this was until about age 11 when I noticed how bad they get treated when they are not taken care of. I am so excited to tell people how they can solve this problem. I have helped with this issue in many ways. I have 2 kittens that we saved on the highway, a momma kitty who had her 2 babies under our house, 1 cat that was roaming our neighborhood and 1 cat from a drive through.

8 Days! On average, this is the number of days an animal has to be alive, once it enters most US animal shelters; if the animal was surrender by the owner, it has 5 days to be adopted; on the other hand, if the animal was found as a stray, then it has an additional 3 days to be claimed by its owner followed by 5 more days to get adopted if the owner does not come forward. According to the ASPCA, approximately 7.6 million companion animals enter the shelters every year and about 35% are euthanized. The misconception is that animals that are put to sleep, are bad, sick and/or aggressive but the sad reality is that most shelters are just overcrowded. People that choose to adopt from shelters, are helping the crowed shelters and not the wrongdoing

Every year 3.9 million dogs and 3.4 million cats are put into shelters (www.ASPCA.org 2016). There are 7.6 million animal shelters nationwide.

They are unlikely to be adopted, unlikely to be loved. Forced to just sit and wait for a lifetime, a cough announcing their death, a whimper calling their descent into despair. This is the unfortunate truth for shelters; shelter animals did not choose this life, so why should we make them live it? There is a common saying a quote first voiced by Karen Davison that fits the situation beautifully, “Saving one dog will not change the world, but surely for that one dog, the world will change forever.” One does not even have to adopt to change the world for an animal, doing a simple task, as simple of one as taking a dog outside and walking it; that will make all the difference.

As people fail to consider the needs of an animal when they’re purchasing one, the risk of abandoning them increases. Animal homelessness is a continuing problem in the United States and needs to be solved.

Animal Rights Some people assume that just because animals cannot speak that they cannot feel pain. It is not okay to torture living beings that have their own thoughts and breathe the exact same air us humans breathe. It is unjust and selfish to stand by and take no action while everyday hundreds if not thousands of innocent animals die without reason. No matter how much fur or how many limbs the creature has; it should be treated as equal as a person. A heart beat is a heartbeat regardless of the body it’s in.

Shelters currently hold pets beyond their originally designed capacity. Pets get dropped off or picked up off the streets for so many reasons. Animals get taken to, or not taken from shelters because they are either strays, victims of abuse, present behavioral issues, left behind due to family moving, abandon from different family experiences, not bought from overpricing, or the family had no time for it. All of which result in psychological effects of trust issues, loneliness, feeling unloved, anxiety, and
