People that breeds dogs in their homes needs to stop, today and yesterday i saw people sale poor baby's on the roads. 😢

[@Tnshadetree]

Should stop the adoption fee this would help wake up if dog food high cost & cost of living with high cost of adoption fee do not help the situation

[@MarieMarieH1776]

Babies!!! Please help them.

Fight harder to restrict breeding and selling nonrescues. Tax each sold dog from “ licensed and approved verified” breeders. Make it a felony to train gamble on or use your dog in fighting rings and stud services. You honesty can’t just allow people to abuse discard replace abuse and discard multiple lives to this level where there are honestly no homes for so many animals. It’s not just the dogs, but cats and farm animals. We’re stupid and nothing stops us as humans from increasing our entitlement to create horrific outcomes from ur unchecked stupidity

I’m not against dog breeding if the breeder is reputable and DOESNT abuse the dogs, but sadly that is not always the case. I think stricter breeding laws and controls need to be put into place.

If Williamson County is reconsidering its no-kill protocols and they need to get rid of a few animals, they should just get help from that Ponderosa Pets place in Georgetown. First, it would alleviate space concerns. And secondly, Ponderosa Pets would save the County money on euthanization costs. Far cheaper to die in a fire than to be euthanized.
