I know this won't win me any friends but euthanizing 2500 dogs per year vs "most mainland shelters having 100% adoption rate" just doesn't pass a reality check. There really is nowhere with a shortage of dogs. There really is no way that 100% of dogs brought in would be adoptable.
The vast majority of people who work at shelters hate the idea of euthanizing animals but they do it anyway. Why? Because that's reality. They have a huge workload because the animals just keep coming and they have heard every story in the book. Just be glad they are there because the alternative would be worse.
