Sunday Herald Sun. July 15, 2007Let's care for dogs

It's time governments addressed the problem of unwanted dogs.

Many people buy puppies without serious thought---falling for their endearing and irresistible charms.

This suits breeders and pet shop owners.

For governments to allow greed-driven breeding to continue unabated while countless numbers of beautiful dogs are put down daily is a disgrace.

Governments need to curtail breeding and ban the sale of dogs in shops.

And many members of the public need to recognise that man's best friend is not a disposable toy.
