Hello Prof Budzinski and Fellow Classmates, Accordingly, after viewing the California Homeless Youth Project 's videos, I felt a string of emotions all at once. I felt gratefulness, gratitude, despair, compassion all in one. In other words, I was seeing myself in those videos or someone I knew encountered in my past life. The struggles of the survival on the street is just getting by with the bare minimal. In one of the stories, a person spoke on everything he owned was in his backpack.…

Animal shelters are sheltering facilities designated for animals that have been lost, abandoned, or found on the streets. PETA has conducted research that “approximately six to eight million animals are handled by animal shelters each year in the U.S” (1). The animals housed at these facilities are often petrified because of the foreign environment of strange animals, poor living quarters, and small quantities of food. The lack of people adopting from shelters has created an issue of…

I have adopted many animals in my 17 years of living. The majority of animals my family has adopted have come from no kill shelters. I hate walking through other shelters when I know the ones that are not going to get adopted in time are going to be put down. My most recent dog I adopted is a poodle maltese mix. Her name is Boo Boo and she was at the shelter for about two months before I adopted her. Imagine if she had been at any other shelter, she probably would have been put to sleep before I…

In the video clip, it showed that the homeless took an abandoned hotel to stay, but the community was furious…

Abandoned pets end up either being sent into animal shelters funded by government or as stray dogs on the streets, suffering for the rest of their life without having the chance to have proper treatments (food and shelter) and to be loved by humans. In shelters, dogs (a big fraction of them consists of…

Pet stores that overshadow shelters put shelter dogs in danger of euthanization. Shelters are not as visited as pet stores, even though the shelter dogs often need more help than the pet store dogs. These dogs often need help because they were found on the streets or maybe even rescued from an abusive home. Shelters put down thousands of animals every year when they are unable to find a home. Pet stores do not have this problem. Dogs from shelters are often not as appealing as purebred dogs…

regarding overpopulation in animals left on the street. Many of these animals end up in either two types of shelters: High-kill or No-kill. A High-kill shelter is a public animal shelter that hosts rescue organizations, in contrast, a No-kill shelter is a private animal shelter that do not kill, or euthanize, any animals they receive.

neutered because failure to do so overburdens shelters, they have unruly behavior, and increases the health risks of pets. Everywhere in the United States, there are approximately 6-8 million homeless animals that go in animal shelters every year. Not even half of those animals are adopted, and the rest of them are euthanized. “Many people are surprised to learn that nationwide, more than 2.7 million healthy, adoptable cats and dogs are euthanized in shelters annually” (The Humane Society). …
