Persuasive Essay Over Crowed Shelters

724 Words3 Pages

The current issue concerning my CORE program would have to be over populated shelters. My view point would be this true in almost every shelter around Oklahoma and many other States you hear about how they are needing families to adopt these animals to help avoid the animals to being put down. There is so many backyard breeders that just keeps adding more and more to the over crowed shelters. Step Two: According to google American Humane is one of the founding members of the National Council on Pet Population Study and Policy. There was over 1,000 shelters that had replied to a survey stating that over 4.3 million animals was being handled. In 1997, roughly 64 percent of the total number of animals that entered shelters were euthanized -- approximately 2.7 million animals in just these 1,000 shelters. Some of these animals may have been put down due to the over population in the shelters …show more content…

This shelter has actually be under fire do to them turning away people who have actually been trying to release their pets into there care since they are not able to or not wanting to take care of them anymore. Also in Edmond they to are over populated Edmond takes in 1,700 to 2,000 dogs and cats annually, and like Norman, the shelter struggles to manage its pet population but they do end up having to euthanize a few dog's just to keep it from being overpopulated. Step Four: After doing a lot of research on this topic I have not find anyone who is actually against trying to help the overpopulated. Everything that I have actually looked at and researched and everyone is wanting to find the best way possible to make shelters no kill shelters but also having shelters not so over populated. Once all this can get a happy medium then I think animals will have a better chance of finding their forever homes and no being put down. Step

    As recent market trends show (8), customers are ready and willing to pay more for these demands. Pittman introduced this idea effectively, and I believe he argues well that reform is the best approach. However, I think he could have bolstered his argument by showing why it was in everyone’s best interest and offering the idea of certification programs (9) as an option as well. Overall, I fully agree that we need laws and enforcement preventing abuse of animals that have no control over the situation they were born into.

    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.

  • Why People Abandon Animals

    864 Words  | 4 Pages

    I think that pitbulls are brought to shelters because a lot of people think that pitbulls are vicious, so a lot more people abandon them. I also think people need to give that animal a second chance at life before giving up on it. Also according to the article about 30% of shelter dogs are eventually claimed by owner, and that 5,000 dogs are killed every day. When people kill and animal I think that they are commiting a murder of an animal, but sometimes life is life and you just have to deal with it. I think that animal shelters need to be bigger so more animals can fit and when an animal cannot fit in the shelter bring it to another shelter it needs another chance at life.

    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

  • Stray Dogs Persuasive Essay

    952 Words  | 4 Pages

    In my community, there is a real big problem with the amount of stray dogs on the streets and city animal shelters are so full that there is little they can do to help. There isn’t much funding from the government for animal shelters in Puerto Rico, which makes it a little harder to clean up the streets. And not only is it dangerous to have a large amount of stray dogs in your area, but also could be harmful to the health of the people. The kill rate for the animal shelters in Puerto Rico are at 97%, which are ridiculously high but still does nothing to solve the issue. My goal is to help my community by providing the alternatives to solving the matter of the amount of stray dogs while also lowering the kill rate for those dogs that have not been properly treated or adopted.
