I understand, sweetwater. Thanks for giving another perspective.

I read, some time ago, about a shelter that this guy designated "no-kill." I'm not sure where it was, now, though it was a county shelter. He found other solutions somehow. I'm sure it would cost more, but it's a good thing. Then there is SICSA in Kettering, OH. I've been there, when I worked down in that area. Neat place!
