No No Kill Shelter?06.25.08

I just got a lovely dog.  She’s a Spaniel, Terrier, Saint Bernard, Collie, Fluffy thing. We got her from a local no kill shelter in Saint Louis. I’ve always thought that no kill shelters were the greatest thing ever.  Well, it turns out that PETA doesn’t think so. In fact, PETA discouages no kills. Rather than donate to one of these shelters, go the Bob Barker route.

Spay and neuter your pets! I agree with PETA that there should be a law that says any dog taken in to any shelter must go through a sterilization process before anything else happens. I also agree that puppy mills should be shut down.  The problem is that people get enamored with a breed of a dog but don’t want to pay the premium price of a legit breeder.  There is, of course, nothing wrong with getting a full bred dog so long as the animal doesn’t come from some bullshit shady source.  It’s like anything else, do your research before you make your purchase. If you find out about a puppy mill, report the sick bastards.

Don’t buy animals from any shop in a mall either.

    Well, I believe in the soul, the cock, the pussy, the small of a woman’s back, the hanging curve ball, high fiber, good scotch, that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days. — Crash Davis
