We, the undersigned, oppose the "shelter" killings of healthy dogs that want to live, and propose a moratorium on all dog breeding (by both professional and backyard breeders) until the shelters are empty.

Dog "shelters" are, by definition, supposed to shield dogs from harm. Yet they routinely kill healthy, robust dogs that want to live. They do this for "space". They kill dogs to empty a pen, into which they put another dog, then kill it for the same reason. There's no logic to that. None.

If there are too many dogs we need a moratorium on dog breeding - by both professional and backyard breeders - until the shelters are emptied.

Please join me by signing this petition to stop the killings and create a breeding moratorium. I'll send it to politicians throughout the United States.
