When was the Last time you tried. We were surprised at how well the "spay your pet" mandate has worked. Check your paper now and see. Even the ungliest horrible mixed mutt is pulling $150 and up now. And services like SPCA and the Pound are also.
You realize that you live over 400 miles away from me, right? What happens in your area is not at all akin to what happens in mine...
If you are in California then your area has been hit by the same "fix your pets" rules that mine has. 3 years ago I could find free pets in every single copy of the newspaper. Now I wait 6 months to find a litter of "unknown mixed puppies" 1 hour drive away. My local paper even has a "free ad for anything less than $50" section so its not the cost of the ads. They just arent around.

Its a good thing. The pounds and spca are far less full. They can keep them longer. Less animals are put down. So its not like Im wishing that the campaign didnt happen. Everything has its pros and cons. This is more pro than con, its just something Im coming up against lately. Ive been considering becoming a pup-house for one of the working dog Groups. Seeing-eye, hearing dogs, wheelchair helpers, search and rescue, disaster, police, medical sniffers. One of those Groups.
