Doesn't that 7000 number get to you? It does me.

If FOHA, the rescue I volunteer for, was closer to you, we would most certainly pull dogs from your shelter, but we don't have reliable transport from Mississippi to VA. :(

San Antonio, TX (a shelter near me) in 2007:
Intake - 23,960
Euthanized - 18,146
76% euthanized.
And that's just dogs.
Their website (http://www.sanantonio.gov/AnimalCare/PDF/SAACS%202007%20Annual-Website.pdf) says that their goal is to be a no kill shelter in five years. Sure.
