Reply #4: Fourteen million, Arnie? Spend half that much on educating the public

[Straight Shooter]

I mean sincere education. Take kids from schools to the shelters, show them these creatures who don't deserve what's happened to them. Organize classes at community centers in obedience training (most animals are put down because of behavior problems.)

And speaking of behavior problems, that's how my beloved pet got to the shelter. Her former "family" neglected her all day long and couldn't understand why she kept running away. They took her to the shelter. The shelter called me, I "rescued" her, she's been with me over 2 years now, and all it took was one month of patient but consistent training, and she's the greatest four-legged companion one could ask for.

So f*ck you, Arnie. And stop looking for solutions that don't address the real problem.
