http://www.freewebs.com/ncche/ This is a must read! it confirms everything we are telling you in this website and also confirms just how bad it is for our pets in shelters. never,never take a pet tto a shelter even if they say its no kill, the no kill shelters will send them to a kill shelter and pay them to kill. I have a problem dealing with the part of them Misinforming the public. because if the peublic was more informed of the truth, these shelters would not get any animals in. and remember the owner surrenders are the first to die, by the time you sign the paper and leave there parking lot your pet can be already dead. the strays they have to hold at least 3 days then they kill them, after the process the strays dont have a home as well nor even offered for adoption.this is an outrage. please help us put an end to this.

You Know I have always wondered why the S.P.C.A'S and Humane Society's across the United States that is paid by our Goverment and our Tax dollars and how they need donations and including dog and cat food when they put them down within three days, what is happening to all the dog and cat food and the

money donations they take in, whos pockets are getting lined. they are not giving it to the pets they kill. where is the money going?

The H.S.U.S and Peta are proud supporters of these animal shelters that have been making our pets suffer for a 1/2 hour till they die in a gas chamber. Its hard to realize that this is happening in the United States and with the largest animal rights groups stand beside the killers. it's a Jagged little Pill thats for sure. we will fight and get this no kill bill passed. both of these animal extreamist groups are very rich from all our donations. but they do nothing for the pets. there hands dont get dirty, they just have this cash cow that gets fed by all the animal lovers in the world, thinking and wanting to help the pets. It makes us all sick. www.petakills.com and www.consumerfreedom.com www.animalscam.com are good research sites. dont donate money to any group without researching first. if you want to donate and help pets ,donate to the rescues that are getting there hands dirty and working day in and day out and that's doing something wonderful and saving lives these pets deserve that. the Rescues are the ones who real need the help in order to help the animals survive and pull them from the shelters.

Please when you get a pet don't throw him away the shelters will kill him.

if you must find a home for your beloved pet please locate a good rescue that will find it a home INSTEAD of taking him to the county shelter, they pollute the city dump with peoples unwanted"OR JUST LOST "pets. run a classified ad and do a home inspection get vet referances and all that if you care for your pet. most ''no kill'' shelters are kill if they dont do it they will send them to a kill shelter that will do the nasty deed, they pay each other a dollar an animal to kill it,with no record of how many. do your research before giving up your beloved pet. do you know that the owner surrenders get killed first, they could have your pet dead before you leave there parking lot. if you can ot keep a pet we have rescues we deal with that are NO KILL . They will find a wnderful home for your pet.

Do you know that 85% of the dogs and cats that enter the shelter leave through the back door and are dumped in a dumpster and our landfills?

do you know that your pet without a tag can be put down before you retrieve him from the shelter.

Did you know that these kill shelters are paid out of your tax dollars to destroy.

Did you know that we are Paying 10 billion dollars a year to have the shelters kill Fido?

did you know it is cheaper to keep the pets alive long enough to find a home.

did you know that these shelters only keep a pet for 3 days if he is a stray.

did you know that fido will not get a good home if you take him there?

did you know these pets love you to the end?

did you know they reach out for us all to help them?

did they know that we loved them?

"If you talk with the animals they will talk with you and you will know each

other. If you do not talk to them you will not know them, and what you do

not know you will fear. What one fears,

Think occasionally of the suffering of which you spare yourself

the sight.

feel there pain for just a second,walk in there shoes of depression of your owner leaving you at the shelter,walk down the cold hallway with a stranger to your death, strangers arms holding you down. until you see the light and god welcoming you home with open arms, gods precious gift was returned to him. god is angry that man can't see what the pain they are inflicting on themselves, by not excepting the most wonderful gift of all- his L.O.V.E! where will this world be tomorrow without it. take a minute and think of what we all take advantage of everyday and when its not there what do we do? if all in this world is hate and killing, fear,sadness,depression and tears? we are doomed to our own distuction.

The overpopulation of homeless cats and dogs, puppies and kittens in most cities,along with a cesspool of mismanagement and incompetence within the departments of Animal Services has brought on a crisis of conscience. The public is more aware than ever of the horror inside the City's Shelter system. The desire to go to No Kill verbalized has been proven to be a scam since they are refusing to take the first crucial step towards No Kill by replacing the kill shelter employees and replace them with a no kill director.

''Overpopulation'' is not a one-time event; there is a constant influx of homeless, lost and owner-surrendered companion animals into the City's shelter system. Any long-term solution requires that the supply dry up, while adopting must increase. It also requires a sweeping reorganization of the animal shelters throughout the nation with new leadership. We must face this crisis by implementing sound, creative and proven methods to stop the killing and change the paradigm from “pets” as disposable accessories, to companion animals who have feelings, needs and unique personalities; individuals whose lives are important to them and to us. Animal Services department is truly an embarrassment to the United States as innocent cats, dogs, puppies, kittens, bunny rabbits as well as wildlife like Pelicans and songbirds are being murdered by the tens of thousands every single year. Please help us get the word out these pets are counting on us to death.

=================================================

This is a must see! this guy has done the research and knows whats going on with our pets in kill shelters, sometimes the kill shelters say they are no kill so they send them to a ''kill shelter ''when they dont find them a home, and I am useing don't loosley. there is homes for these pets. now lets stop believing theres not and find them homes and direct them to the life they sooo deserve.

''THE REDEMPTION''

What P.E.T.A & H.S.U.S

Dont Want You To Know!

This is the man who wrote the Book Redemption the things that

Peta & the H.S.U.S dont want to know.he is the one who did the research

This is a very sweet story you must watch it I cry everytime I watch it its

the best thing that could ever happen to a wild animal/pet.this is proof

that animals never forget.and they love forever! we are embeded in there

soul & spirt...we need to stop the killing.of such heart filled loveable pets!

Now thats what we love to see the love between man and beast,

Why is it so hard for the United States to just love animals, they are people who are down right hurting and abusing our pets. but when the goverment does it through the kill shelters is not, what a crock! its all abuse no matter how you look at it.and the phrase ''Humanly Euthenized'' is also a crock. these pets are feeling alot of pain either by the injection type or the gas chamber.some pets are hit in the head with a shove by a shelter worker before they are gassed, since the breathing is shallow the gas doesn't kill the animal and there for he is either hit in the head or chocked to death by the shelter worker with his foot. this is abuse and it needs to stop and

stop NOW!

Please Opt To Adopt from either your local shelter or from us or another rescue group. please always make sure your pet has a tag AND micro chip so

he can return to you instead of being in the hands of the shelter.I don't

know how these shelter workers do what they do, there is no way k9

Editions kill pets or animals we find them homes and relocate to no kill

rescues that find them homes.this does not have to be these pets fate.

we need to network when someone needs a pet go to the local shelter or get on the internet and find the dog or cat that you have been dreaming about across the united states. we are not over populated we are just unorganized is all.these animals have homes.pick up the book Redemition that will tell you what you need to know about whats happening to our pets

in shelters and its everything the PETS &H.S.U.S dont want you to know.

read it will be the best book you ever read.this book can save these

animals lives, through just the awarness of the public.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am so sorry to bring this to everyone,I cant can't stand it, the awareness has

to be made these precious pets dont deserve this. if we can reach one puppy

mill, or on Shelter to stop the gassing & killing or someone thinking about

taking there pet to a shelter we are still saving lives.

The worse is that this is REALLY HAPPENING! IN THE UNITED STATES!

write your letters to your congressman and tell them we refuse to pay for this

killing any longer!

when its cheaper to keep them alive and find homes for them so why the kill of

wanted pets?

This is a Hitler Mentality who can kill someones pets? makes you stop and think.

I dont care if I was paid a million dollars there is no way I would be able to kill

a animal or anyones pet for that matter.

We all need to take the responsibility for these animals. there are a lot of people that doesn’t want to hear that the United States shelters are being this inhumane to our animals.

Out of site out of mind.

The people need to be aware and voice your opinion and concern for the animals we all know and love.No matter how sad the thought this is reality to these animals. The animals in our shelters are no different than animals you have in your home,

picture one of your animals that you love dearly with every inch of your heart , he gets lost and ending up in kill shelter, which most shelters are kill by the way if they say diffrent they most likely are lying, all they have to do is say the animal is sick or for some reason not adoptiable,gives the shelters the right to kill while you are looking for your dog on the streets and asking every neighbor you if they seen your dog, he is the back room or the basment of the shelter being restrained with a human body lying on top of him when a needle goes in his vein and falls to the floor. when you get to the shelter they say yes we just had a dog that fits your description, we just put him to sleep he was a stray, your heart drops to the floor and start wiping the tears streaming down your face, after a few choice words to the director you ask for the dogs body, then they tell you that they don’t have it any more. you ask why? where is he?they say it went to the dump with hundreds of others they destroyed that day. when yoy get to the dump you see thousands among thousands of dead dogs of all kinds and the stench of death, you finially see the yip of your babies tail sticking out from the bottom of the pile. this is something you will never forget the rest of your life. I sure didn't get over it. its been 10 years and I am still fighting for the animals.

WOW! That is the most horrible thing that could ever happens, but it does every day in our shelters, it has happened to me and a ton of other people. We need to protect our pets in our lives and the homeless/lost/ very adoptable animals. help us stand up and say stop the killing.send letters out with your concerns to the legslatiors in your state.

So that’s how we look at it ,they are all our animals and we have the right to speak for them, dont put this very important cause out of your mind, THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING. This should not be .

Those of you that were keeping up on the rescues that H.S.U.S done in the Katrina disaster those animals were adopted to other people not surrendered back to their owners,this is an outrage!

they took in like 32 million dollars and made more money of the ''sale'' of these victims Dogs & Cats, these people were hurting enough now their beloved pet is gone they dont know if there alive or dead these people have nothing at all left as this point. H.S.U.S refuses & denied the owners of these dogs and cats to get them back.

The victims of the flooding have no recourse since H.S.U.S has the 32 million dollars of donations to fight the owners with that you sent to them to help the animals, they hired just another attorney to add to their payroll so the power that the people gave them through donations to help the animals they used it against us. Intentially hurting both animals and human.

DO NOT DONATE MONEY TO H.S.U.S & PETA!

check out the site www.petakills.com see what is happening and put the link together from the these animal activist/extreamist groups and your local kill shelter,do your home work.these groups have a hidden agenda, which is a motive attached to the kill shelters. check it out.. they want to elimate all animals including the ones for food and pets under the ''guise of animal welfare'', its there cash cow...that perpuates there conflict industry.

people actually think these Radical groups are part of our goverment. since there name is United States Humane Society this is what they hope you think but THERE NOT THEY ARE SCAMMERS! They have been misleading the public to collect there money in the name of animal welfare for years.its time we put a stop to there minipulating ways of taking your money and not caring for not 1 animal, if they would have used just a fraction of the many billion dollars they collected went to the animals there would be no problem the wont be getting killed in shelters. They use the money they get as donations against we people who love and care for animals, we dont kill them and throw there bodies in dumpster ot landfill as they have done for years now

we always had a love for animals and cared about what happens to them.so we figure why not take it a step further and instead of saving one at a time we can save as many as we can by using the internet as a tool for the animals and people alike, people need animals as much as animals need people, therefor I dont understand why is there KILL Shelters when the demand for dogs and puppies are so rampid. K9 Editions did our homework and found out that there is no reason why the animals are getting killed in the United States Shelters by mass distruction & suffering until death when thrown into dumpsters. below we have a author of a book that is a must read it has some alarming facts to what is happening in our shelters on a daily basis this has to stop. we also have put some links on our site that makes you want to scream but the animals have died in vein the least we can do is stop it from continuing and save as many animals we can with legislation to stop the Kill shelters.

It gets pretty bad for the animals when the animal activist peta starts killing them and throwing there bodies in dumpsters. so now what are they to do? K9 Editions to the rescue...

H.S.U.S amoung others have been misleading people for years, they dont do anything for the animals.but take your money and pass laws that is hurtful to us and our pets.they support the killings in our shelters amoung other hidden agendas we have posted some links to show what that hidden agenda's are.

Lets be more than a Voice for the animals and help pass a bill to protect them at www.wethepeoplepets.com! listed below is a Book that PETA Dont want you to read.

want to take a bite out of PETA

The Consumer Freedom interview with Redemption author Nathan Winograd

Nathan Winograd is a Stanford Law School graduate and a former criminal prosecutor. He has also presided over America’s two most successful experiments in what’s become known as the “No-Kill” animal shelter movement. At SPCAs in San Francisco and Tompkins County, New York, Winograd showed that No-Kill animal sheltering -- the brand of hands-on animal care that deep-pocketed animal “rights” groups like PETA and the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) ironically oppose -- can work.

In his book Redemption, Winograd argues that the idea of pet overpopulation in America is a myth. PETA cites this “overpopulation” as the reason it kills nearly 90 percent of the dogs and cats it takes in. And the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) literally wrote the book on a system of animal sheltering that seems resigned to killing healthy pets out of sheer laziness, instead of looking for alternatives.

After we read Redemption, we had some tough questions for Winograd. And he graciously agreed to answer them.

CCF: Right on the cover of your book, you call the idea of pet overpopulation in the United States a "myth." Are you saying that there are enough homes for every healthy, unwanted pet?

Winograd: Yes. Based on the number of existing households with pets who have a pet die or run away, more homes potentially become available each year for cats than the number of cats who enter shelters, while more than twice as many homes potentially become available each year for dogs than the number of dogs who enter shelters.

Put another way, every year more families are potentially looking to bring a new dog or cat into their home than the animals that enter shelters. And the market of homes (the number of homes which do not currently have a dog or cat but will acquire one) is expanding rapidly. If shelters increased their market share by just a few percentage points, we could be a No Kill nation right now. But we are far from it.

As a movement, the humane community has accepted the idea that the best shelters can do for homeless animals is to adopt out some and kill the rest. To try to avoid criticism for this, to justify a paltry number of adoptions, these groups have perpetuated the myth that there are simply more animals than homes, something that is patently false (even though most people believe it).

Redemption offers a stunning indictment of the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS). Why does such a wealthy animal rights organization appear so disinterested in saving the lives of cats and dogs?

HSUS is the wealthiest humane organization in the United States. Since its founding in the mid-1950s, it has grown in scope, size, and influence. It claims the support of some 10 million members, while its conference which caters to shelters is currently the largest nationwide. Given that, one would predict, expect and hope that it would be at the forefront of the No Kill movement, leading the way to ending the systematic killing of dogs and cats in U.S. shelters. But instead HSUS has been one of No Kill’s fiercest and most obstinate opponents.

One of the fundamental downsides of bureaucracies is their focus on self-preservation at the expense of their mission. Agencies like the Humane Society of the United States have ignored No Kill success and put the interest of animals -- indeed their very lives -- aside.

What would HSUS stand to lose if American animal shelters all moved toward a “No Kill” philosophy tomorrow?

Other than a few employees with a deplorable history of supporting the unnecessary killing of dogs and cats in shelters, and perhaps some longstanding relationships with shelter directors mired in killing, absolutely nothing. In fact, they would be hailed as pillars of compassion by the American public. That is what makes their position on this issue (historical and presently) so disturbing.

If you hadHSUS's resources ($200 million in the bank and $150 million of income this year), how much progress could you make toward reforming our nation's animal shelters? What would you do first?

More money isn’t necessary to end the killing of savable dogs and cats in shelters. In fact, most of the programs and services necessary to save lives would actually cost these shelters less than what they are currently spending to warehouse animals and then kill them.

For example, adoptions generate revenue, they generate good will (which could be leveraged for future donations), and they lead to greater word-of-mouth publicity which leads to more adoptions and more revenue. Killing animals, by contrast, not only costs money (to end an animal’s life and dispose of the body), but it also makes the public less satisfied with the job a shelter is doing, especially as the shelter blames that same public for the problem. These are the people a shelter needs to embrace (in the form of adopters, volunteers, and donors) if it’s going to save animals’ lives.

Volunteers and foster homes also provide subsidized services, in which private individuals and rescue groups care for shelter animals at no cost to taxpayers. It is a cost-free way to save a great number of dogs and cats. But too many shelters turn these people away at the front door -- while the animals they are trying to help go out the back door in a body bag.

In short, animals are not dying because of lack of money in the vast majority of U.S. cities.

Take the municipal animal shelter in Austin, Texas for example. In 2000, its budget was $2.9 million. Now it’s $4.8 million. But the number of dogs and cats killed in Austin increased during this time. PETA spends around $30 million every year, but claims it can’t save 2,000 dogs and cats. Following the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, Americans donated over $32 million to the Humane Society of the United States, specifically to help the dogs and cats trapped in New Orleans. They spent only a fraction of that money on the problem. What did they do with the rest?

You have a pretty blunt assessment of PETA's long-standing habit of killing animals instead of working to place them in adoptive homes. Why should the public believe PETA's line about saving pigs and chickens if it's not willing to start with dogs and cats?

This, to me, is the great betrayal in PETA’s position. If groups like PETA openly champion the killing of dogs and cats in shelters, if they do not take the position that killing dogs and cats is inherently unethical and should be condemned, how do they expect to convince the public that pigs, chickens, and other animals -- with whom Americans do not have a close relationship -- should have more protections?

If the animal rights community, which claims to be the standard bearer for what our relationship with animals should be, approves of the idea of killing millions of animals in shelters, doesn’t that undermine their ultimate goals? The old adage “With friends like these, who needs enemies?” could not be more true.

What's beneath the surface of PETA's apparent hypocrisy here? Why do you think the group doesn't endorse a “No Kill” philosophy, or at least stop tasking its employees with killing pets?

I can only think of one possibility. PETA’s founder, Ingrid Newkirk, previously worked at the Washington Humane Society in Washington, DC, a shelter that has historically been the subject of public criticism for high rates of shelter killing. In fact, at a time when Stanford University was having great success with its program to save homeless cats on its campus, the Washington Humane Society opposed my effort to create a similar program on the Georgetown University campus. In the end, Georgetown sided with the Washington Humane Society, which embraced a campaign of extermination.

Few animal activists who follow PETA’s lead on the companion animal issue are probably aware that its founder’s former job was to kill homeless dogs and cats in a shelter that had a poor record for saving lives.

Isn't it a bit hypocritical for groups like PETA and HSUS to be front-and-center in the Michael Vick story? Nobody with half a brain supports dog fighting, but isn't killing dogs out of sheer convenience just as nasty?

The thought of what those poor dogs went through is personally very painful to me. If the public pressure created by these groups led to Vick’s suspension from the NFL, a positive thing has been accomplished. If it leads to greater penalties for people who do this, again that is positive. And as a former Deputy District Attorney who prosecuted animal cruelty cases, I believe that if Michael Vick is found guilty, he should be punished severely.

But while PETA applauds the prosecution of Michael Vick, it fought similar efforts by a prosecutor in North Carolina who went after PETA employees for needlessly killing animals and dumping their bodies in supermarket trash bins.

And while PETA condemns Michael Vick for killing Pit Bull-type dogs, PETA itself is on record saying that each and every Pit Bull entering a U.S. animal shelter should be killed as a matter of policy -- including healthy and friendly dogs. By its actions, words, and deeds, PETA is condemning hundreds of thousands of dogs annually to death.

HSUS is no better. HSUS once called the mass extermination of alley cats the only “practical and humane” solution. Why is the needless killing of millions of cats “humane,” especially in the face of non-lethal lifesaving alternatives?

In your book, you mention briefly the connection between shelter adoption rates and retail pet sales. Can you flesh this out a bit? Does this indicate that there are plenty of homes for adoptable animals?

When San Francisco became the first city in the U.S. to save all healthy, homeless dogs and cats, and was effectively talking to the public about pet adoption, there was not a single pet store left in the city selling dogs and cats. It didn’t start out that way, but that was the result. Why? Because they couldn’t compete with the SPCA.

Americans want to do the right thing, and they saw shelter adoption as a way to save lives and bring the joys of animal companionship into their homes. By contrast, when you look at cities with high levels of shelter killing, you also tend to see large numbers of pet stores.

This tells me that the animals in these communities aren’t dying because “there are too many dogs and cats, and not enough homes” -- as the shelter directors want you to believe. If that were the case, you wouldn’t see so many pet retailers. They exist because there’s a market demand for dogs and cats. And because the shelters are doing a lousy job at adopting to the community.

You make a pretty convincing case that whatever pet "overpopulation" exists in the U.S. is the fault of poorly run shelters, not the public that typically gets blamed for creating the problem. But surely there's something the public can do to help reverse the current situation. What's your bottom-line advice for John Q. Consumer?

We need to reclaim these institutions. The agencies that the public expects to protect homeless pets are instead killing more than five million of them every year. Lifesaving alternatives have existed for decades. But too many of these agencies remain mired in the “kill” philosophy of the past, unwilling to explore and adopt methods that save lives. This is a breach of their public trust.

We need to reform animal shelters through lobbying, by making demands at the local government level, and by withholding contributions until they change. We need to hit them right back for advocating killing by using a tactic they understand: the boycott.

Do not donate to HSUS or any other shelter or agency which refuses to embrace a No Kill philosophy. Let them know that when they decide to do right by the animals, you will be ready to open your checkbook.

In the end, there may be an overpopulation problem in the United States, but it is not the one we traditionally define. What we are actually suffering from -- what is actually killing a high number of animals -- is an overpopulation of lazy and complacent shelter directors. A culture of lifesaving is not possible without wholesale regime change in shelters, and in national animal protection groups. So the most important single act -- and the crucial first step -- is to fire the current leadership of shelters across the country. That is what the public should demand.

Redemption: The Myth of Pet Overpopulation and the No Kill Revolution in America is available online from Amazon.com and other retailers. Every copy sold is guaranteed to raise the blood pressure of the wrong-headed activists who run PETA and HSUS

The word must get out so the Killings will stop! tell everyone you know about this and have them tell there friends to help is save Americans pets.

of very much wanted and healthy pets in our shelters.

we have a few foster parents in the northern states, when we deliver we also take to the foster parents some puppies and dogs, so we are really moving these babies and finding the best homes possiable for them as fast and best as we can. we have also found a few rescues that will take at least 40 deathrows a month. so this was very good news for us so on top of the 30 we place and the ones that the rescues get we are saving roughly 100 dogs and puppies a month. with rescue unlike breeding there is no extra money so we always need money to feed and house and vet fees ect ....

we are not a fussy or a snobby Rescue we do scan the applications and are very understandable and know that these dogs need a home, we dont pick on the little things as most rescues and shelters usally do. we look at the animals need for a good home before we would care about your bank account or what size underwear you have, when an animal needs a home one can't be picking on the little things when someone has a great home to offer a pet. we trust that you have the potential to care properly for the pet. so feel free to look and contact us with any questions you might have.

we will deliver for extra fee of 150.00 to cover gas and travel expense, we drive a straite 14 hours each way, since the price of gas had went up we need to charge for delivery I hope you understand.

the state of alabama has always had a kill shelter that resulted people to drop off there unwanted pets along the road ways, now that they have created a huge mess they are killing these very much wanted animals by mass distruction.

although it a very expensive way of running a rescue in the means of relocation program, our fees maybe a little higher then your local kill shelter but with each and every adoption fee we take no short cuts at feeding ,shots and wormings as well as right down to the shampoos we use. we also put frontline the dogs we get in. shots and de-wormings love and attention.

they do eat the very best of foods .we can feed up to 200 lbs a week. so these guys are healthy and strong as they should be with a beautiful shinny coat.

we give our own shots and the shot records will be with each and every puppy so that your vet can continue with the shot and worming program in which we started the puppy on. If we get in a mom and puppies we will start the deworming process at the age of 3 weeks old and every two weeks, after that and there first set of shots, although they are mixes we treat them like we do our Royal Cavalier King Charles. there is no diffrence bewteen the care that they recieve. all get the same A+ treatment and care.
