Stop euthanizing dogs after only 10 days in NYC ACC.


Stop euthanizing dogs after only 10 days in NYC ACC.
The Issue
The hold time for dogs brought into the ACC is only 18 hours after that they can euthanize at will. Many adoptable dogs are being destroyed after less than 2 weeks, notice of the animals to be destroyed date is given out after 6 pm. Of the impending kill time at 12:00 pm the following day. This is not enough time for rescue groups to step in and find fosters to save these animals. Thousands of animals are being destroyed without given a realistic amount of time to be placed in a loving home. It is cruel and inhumane. A 30 day minimum hold with 72 hours notice of going on the euthanize list would save the lives of a large percentage of these animals.
