We do have to differentiate between HSUS and local shelters, though. This
is how H$U$ gets much of its money. From the start, it took the name Humane
Society of the United States, and people very naturally assumed that this was
the BIG Humand Society that covered all the local ones. Uh, Uh!
Many local animal control dog pounds now give them selves another name
(Animal Services, Animal Control, etc.), but most still call themselves humane
societies. And H$U$ capitalizes on that fact.
If a local animal control (humane society) is behaving in the way Diane
describes, (and I think there was lots more problems there, if I remember
reading
correctly), it's up to us to working on correcting the problem. And there
will be massive resistance (check L.A. county/city for a prime exampleof
massive
resistance!) and YOU will be blamed (If you didn't breed all those dogs
running around the streets and misbehaving in their new owners homes, the
shelters
would, of course, be empty...NOT!).
Read Nathan Winograd's "Redemption" or go to one of his seminars...one is
coming near you, check his website for his schedule. (

There's lots of good information out there.
