He told me the actual numbers he dealt with. The animals have 30 days. Day 1 enter shelter, adopted or not, day 30 they exit shelter. From what he relayed, I have no reason not to believe, they could teach Hitler efficiency.  He worked there, why would he lie? City / County operated facilities may or may not be similarly operated, but he says it's SOP for ASPCA. Their philosophy was same as the jerkwad cop in OP, it was nicer to the animal. Kill or not, they provide a needed a service and the general doesn't want to how they do it.Our local shelter is part of Police Dept, dog catcher is a cop, so he writes citations. When shelter gets close to full, a public notice is issued. Animals are adopted or shipped to Lawton. (Kill shelter I've been told, but not sure)We do have a severe dumping problem.I hate those that dump and wish more were caught, then severely prosecuted,  but our court system would fail.</blockquote>
