Regarding the Dec. 30 article, “Stanwood couple shelter’s best pals”: In spite of the millions of dollars and countless hours donated by generous and caring people like the Edsons, roughly 3 million dogs will be killed in America this year. Their only “crime” being the fact they don’t have a home. This tragedy not only goes on each year, it grows like a cancer.
Shelters are so busy with the day-to-day chores of caring for these animals that they don’t have much time left over to get to the root of the problem: There aren’t enough homes for all the animals being born.
Resolve to end this senseless tragedy.
