No-Kill shelters should be relabelled ‘Low-Kill’

PoC avatarPosted on March 8, 2019 by Michael BroadNovember 22, 2019

PoC avatarPosted on October 29, 2017 by Michael BroadOctober 29, 2017

Staff workers at open admittance shelters might be undervalued and incorrectly criticised for killing healthy pets when unadopted but these shelters do work that no-kill shelters don’t do. There are dangers though for both staff and animals.
