I just hate it. These are live animals we are talking about and they are due to be euthanized…

why???

Because people aren't responsible enough to neuter or spay their dogs, or they breed them because they think they will make money, or they let unneutered males roam their neighborhood and procreate. Very sad. Hope we can make a little difference at the Dog Files. We'll be having Adoption Sunday every week.

has nothing to do with neutering and spaying but everything to do with people not controlling their dogs. spaying and neutering has dangers and is completely unnatural. it is NOT the problem.

why can't you send them on to a no kill shelter? there must be a way, you just can't kill them! please try to find them a second chance shelter, their is one in ny. state, i don't know the phone #, but i'm sure through your resources you could find out or a foster home for them might help, please try!!!!!! 🙁

And at what point in human history have we been able to talk responsibilty and sense to the public at large aand have them all listen? It goes hand in hand with spaying and neutering. If we don't do it we will never stop the problem.

Who is “you people”? The Dog Files isn't killing any dogs. We are trying to save them. And the minute we save these six dogs, if possible, 12 more dogs take their place. If you want shelters to not kill dogs then you have to work on creating awareness of spaying and neutering programs in you state or town. And adopt a dog or two.

They're at a municipal shelter. They have no choice. It's up to another shelter or rescue to step up and take them. Believe me, there is not one person at the Martinez shelter that wants to see these dogs put down, but with limited space, more dogs coming in every day, and no one stepping forward to rescue them there is little that can be done.

Hi Jon, small world! I think of the rescue dog world as sticking your thumb in a leak in a giant damn. No matter what you do, more cracks and holes start appearing. Spaying and neutering is the only way.

isn 't there a pitbull rescue center out there that would save them? i would take them but i live in rochester ny, and don't have the money to ship them here plus the adoption fee! so it's probally stupid of to even be mentioning this at all. i'm just so upset that those beautiful babies, who are healthy and have good temperments, that they would be put down, for no other reason except for room to keep them. don't you have an outdoor storage area or foster people that would take care of them until they found homes for them..please someone out there save these dogs! God couyld you make a miracle happen! PLEASE!!!!!!!

The pathetic thing is they pass there good character test. Thanks dog files for posting this. I have shared this link with many others. They deserve better. I would but my city Winnihell has a ban on them we are trying to drum up some support to get people to call councilors and remove this by-law because it is really stupid and hurtful. I hope the clowncillors do something and the rest of the so called dog lovers here in this toilet.

I only take rescues now and I have two. If I had more property, you can bet your sweet bullies I would take on more. I love my two bully mixes and if we had the room I would take as many on as I could. I love them so much. I just wish I could find more people who love dogs as much as I do so these precious gems could get adopted and saved. They are beautiful and wonderful dogs with hearts of gold and silver. The saying “what you give to a dog he will give you 100 fold in return” is so true.
