Dear Editor,

Monika’s Doggie Rescue covered a holistic statistics released by NSW government that a huge number of dogs and cates were killed in NSW everyday in 2011.

The news called “NSW kills 150 dogs and cats everyday” had looked that 7600 pets were killed by council pound in 2010. Of the 50,000 abandon dogs in NSW pounds, over 1/3 of them were killed there .(Monika’s Doggie Rescue, 2011)

This year, the issues of abandon dogs become more serious. Monika’s Doggie Rescue is experiencing an unprecedented increase in the number in mature dogs being dumped at the pound in recent months becasse dogs are living longer than people’s expectation and people abandon them after they pass the cutest puppy time.

“Each week we are now getting a few dogs 10 or even 15 years old” says Monika, the owner of Monika’s Doggie Rescue“Never before have we seen so many middle aged dogs and right now we

Firstly, I want the public to understand the horrible situation of abandon pets in NSW. Secondly, I want the public to realized that abandon animals is an continue issue in Australia and it is not only the respirability of government pounds and rescue shelter to deal with the problems. Thirdly, I want to build a responsible image for Monika’s Doggie Rescue. I want the public to realize that Monika’s Doggie Rescue is not only a private dog rescue center, but is a responsible organization which concern the social issues. In addition, I want to the public to pay attention to the hard current situation of the Monika’s Doggie Rescue, which they are forcing to be closed and need the help from public.

The target media outlet is the Sydney Morning Herald. As the leading newspaper in Australia, the Sydney Morning Herald has a wide audience. In addition, in the life&style part of the newspaper, it used to cover a number of news about the abandon animals. In 2009, it has covered a news of Monika’s Doggie Rescue (Sydney Morning Herald,

    Willamette Humane Society Spay Neuter Clinic produced a video for the general public to explain how the use of spaying and neutering animals can reduce the overpopulation of strays and reduce the number of humane euthanasia performed. United States of American has done their best to reduce the overpopulation of cats and dogs by teaming humane societies and clinics together, adoption of animals was conditional to spay and neuter of the animal. Through my own experience, volunteering with humane societies, the change in the behavior after spaying and neutering these undomesticated animals has meant a future for them and fewer animals are left wandering the streets and fewer animals returned to shelters as future population is decreased.

    Aspca Pit Bulls Analysis

    According to statistical data posted on Barkpost.com, pit bulls are the #1 shelter intake dog and the #1 most frequently euthanized dog in shelters for no other reason than overcrowding. Each year, 1.2 million dogs are euthanized in this country and of those 1.2 million, approximately 40% of them are pit bulls (Moore). Only 1 in every 600 pit bulls in this country will find a loving home (Prasad). Advocates, rescue groups, shelters and animal rights groups like the ASPCA are likely unable to be completely objective when it comes to these dogs who they often see abused, mistreated and dumped at their shelters only to ultimately die due to overcrowding. The emotional toll these workers must endure is unimaginable. However, as a pit bull owner myself, I worry when an uninformed or neutral audience is not given the full picture on something like the responsibility of caring for such a controversial pet. I cringe when I see pit bull puppies intentionally misidentified as “easier” breeds such as Labrador retrievers or boxer mixes in an attempt to find homes for less adoptable puppies labeled as pit bulls. I myself, was led to believe by my rescue group that I was adopting a vizsla mix puppy. As the owner of a purebred vizsla, I…

    iii. As reported in Canada’s weekly newspaper, Macleans (2004), “Experts in canine control and behavior have all said the same thing. Breed-specific bans are reactionary and ineffectual because they don't address the root of the problem: high-risk owners.” According to Dr. Gary Landsberg, a Thornhill, Ont., veterinarian and president of the American College of Veterinary Behaviorists, “people who want to breed and/or own vicious dogs will simply turn to other…

    Animal rights workers and a kind Russian billionaire have opened a shelter for these strays. The city had told them they had 4 days to collect the animals or they would be shot. So animal right workers had gotten a golf cart, called the “dog rescue”, and scoured the Olympic campus, picking up the animals and delivering them to the shelter. The shelter is an outdoor shantytown of doghouses on a hill, outside the city. They are calling the shelter PovoDog, in Russian means leash. This makeshift shelter has already saved up to 80 animals, including a dozen puppies. Animal right workers say that most of strays were pets, or offspring’s of pets, abandoned by families whose homes were demolished over the past few years to make way for the Olympic venues. Russia has never made a priority of pushing responsible animal control policies, including spaying or neutering. If they did this would have helped avoid the current problems.…
