If a dog is past a certain age they become less likely to be rescued, so they get put down instead -- which is a problem because at least where I am, rescues are pretty strict with who they let take a dog home.
ah ya, fair enough. I'm not sure the policy of the local shelter, just moved here a few months ago. I'd like to adopt 2 dogs but i'm currently single and travel a bit for work with no dog watching resources close by. But I should really resolve that.... dogs are so worth it.
It's not often the mean dogs that get put down.
