Over 4 million animals are euthanized in shelters each year, mainly due to over-population. The math is simple: there are too many animals and not enough adopters, so why is it that we are continuing to allow breeders to breed?  The arguement from those that want a purebread is extremely weak as there are purebread animals in shelters nation-wide. 

As a nation, we have the power to decrease the number of animals euthanized drastically, what are we waiting for?
