    The way i look at it is, the bulk of the HSUS and ASPCA donations campaigns are based on the commercialization of their "life saving puppy mill raids'? If the end result of the raids is to send these animals off to large city Pounds/ Humane Societies that are already over crowded and kililng by the thousands, well my local HS doesnt need THAT kind of help. If we wanted to "raid and kill" we could do that WITHOUT the help of the HSUS and ASPCA. We ask them for help because they CLAIM to be the saviors of these animals. We dont need any help killing, my local aniaml controll does a hell of a job with that already, and by the way, does it a LOT cheaper than these groups do. If all we are getting for the asking from these groups is THEM getting the publicity, 100M in donations every year, and local groups get stuck with the animals and killing, well whats the point? We can do that by ourselves. We sure as heck dont need them coming in sucking up all of the donation money while we do the work. As I said, if we want the animals dead, our local law/animal control can do that without any help..

    We want animals cared for and not destroyed. Where is our monies going and what is their track record of successful re-homing?

    #1. PETA If you have google, GOOGLE PETA EUTHANIZATION RATES.. Its an easy find. #2. ASPCA Google the Mississippi Puppy Mill raid last FEB where the ASPCA took 98 ? animals from a breeder. IF you look on the ASPCA's own site, all but around 30 of those animals were sent to the ATLANTA HUMANE SOCIETY. AHS is among the highest kill rate "shelters' in the United States. Statistically, Georgia is the KILLINGEST 3 x 1 ration above any other state in the USA. Is the answer not apparent? Why WOULD the ASPCA (HSUS ALSO) send these dogs to some of the "killingest" HS in the Nation? The ASPCA nor does the HSUS keep any statistical data as to how many of these "rescued puppy mill dogs" are infact killed. I know because IVE ASKED THEIR REPS ONLINE. #3. HSUS As we ALL know the HSUS doesnt even own ONE dog shelter ANYWHERE. ALL "saved puppy mill raid dogs from the HSUS "rescues" are sent to CITY HS around the nation also.. NO stats kept as to those kill rates either. HSUS sometimes partners with the notorious "KERN COUNTY HS" or as I refer to it the KERN COUNTY KILL SHELTER". You will note in MANY of the HSUS "rescues' KERN COUNTY KILL SHELTER is where MOST of these "saved dogs end up".? YOU ASK WHY the HSUS and ASPCA send their "rescues" to some of the "killingest" shelters in the nation?" I think that answer is apparent.. Its an easy "raid and dump" tactic. THEY raid, get the 100M year in publicity, the local broke shelters get stuck with the killing. It doesnt take a LOT of imagination to realize whats happening here.. After all, the HSUS , PETA and ASPCA are the BIGGEST proponents of "its more humane to kill".. MY question is? If three of the RICHEST "rescue/ animal rights groups" in the nation cant afford to "save" them., then WHO THE HELL CAN? It is NOT more humane "to kill".. ITS CHEAPER, EASIER and THEY dont have to keep stats on how many of their "saved puppy mill raid dogs' are actully ?MURDERED FOR DONATIONS".. If these 40-100 MILLION DOLLAR A YEAR "rescues" cant "save them":, or at least TRY, with all of that money coming in, Then the dogs and cats are just SCREWED.. Then they have the audacity to compare THEIR kill rates to that of my local BROKE HS? I think not.. My local group takes in an "average" of 40-50 thousand dollars a year.. (AND BY THE WAY) PErSONALLY saves more animals than either the HSUS or PETA.. ASPCA "saved around 4000 animals last year took in nearly $100,000,000,00 in donations doing it.. Thats one hell of a budget dont you think? The ASPCA also paid their CEO Edwin Sayre a REMARKABLE $516,000.00 in salary.. USING DONATION MONEY... Maybe its just me.. But again, if you take in 100M bucks a year while claiming that you are the "puppy mill rescuers" of the world and you cant SAVE anymore animals than that with THAT kind of budget, then the animals are ROYALLY SCREWD~.. My LOCAL HS has a better track record than this.. AT LEAST they dont kill unless they absolutely have to... And they CERTAI

    I would like to know where these facts and figures originated. They are too horrible to fathom. To what individual or group can I attribute these findings?

    People who work in high level positions within these groups should NOT be drawing huge salaries. This is NON-PROFIT. The money is NOT being donated to pay their salaries. If your not in it for the love of animals, then don't work there.
