I commented and said that maybe shelters should charge pet owners $3000 per dog to drop them off. Think how that money could be used to train and rehabilitate dogs so that they could be adopted out and not returned because someone new is just inheriting another's bad parenting. Maybe if pet owners HAD to be responsible or else pay up, they'd think twice about getting an animal.
