So so sad... Here is something for ALL OF US to think about, we as TAX PAYERS (City of Las Vegas, North Las Vegas and County) PAY FOR THIS "SHELTER". Thats a funny word isnt it, It means to PROTECT. That is hardly what they are doing at good old lied. Let's paint a picture; you are out of town, you have your neighbors watching your dogs and they get out because the landscaper forgot to lock the gate. The dogs are a little nervous because you were not home and they run away. They get picked up by animal control! You are 3000 miles away from home THEY ARE DEAD...! You could not change your ticket to get back to SAVE YOUR DOGS. Yep folks, that's what we are PAYING FOR, makes you feel so good inside... Now the flip side, we have backyard breeders just trying to make a buck on the mamma dogs that have nurtured and birthed these poor babies (which should have been spayed or neutered in the first place). People that go to puppy stores and get the cute "puppy in the window" have no idea what it takes to provide a good home(not to mention ALL OF THE POTETIAL HEALTH PROBLEMS). Then we have to look at the FACT that a POUND/SHELTER (ironic that word SHELTER) WOULDN'T EXIST if everyone was a responsible pet owner........
