Tommorrow is not a good day for dogs at Meigs County Shelter. If they are not rescued or adopted or fostered, it could be their last day on earth. People have stepped up to the plate and there are rescues pending. Yeh!!!!However there are wonderful animals who NEED to GET OUT who do not have rescues. The tragedy of our animal shelter system is that we have accepted killing homeless animals as a means to control the pet overpopulation problem. It is a sad and tragic way to deal with lives.

And how will the dogs die tomorrow who aren't helped? Will it be gas or needle, and if it is gas will it be painful and terrifying. No one will tell them they will be okay. The person assigned the task will just hope they die quickly. The stress on shelter workers who euthanize day in and day out is great.There are gas chambers and there are gas chambers. Many animal convulse in gas chambers , urinate, deficate, howl. They all don't just quietly drop dead.
Rocky is the white young pointer mix in the photos. He is a good boy who deserves a loving home.
"Rocky is a beautiful dog who was dumped here. He is incredibly friendly, and loves everyone! He is such a sweet boy! Very playful & gets along great with other dogs & children! Come down & meet rocky & the other great dogs today! "
Do that adopt, foster, rescue.
