No Kill Quick Facts How It Works




Achieving No Kill is not complicated, but it does require replacing the traditional model of animal sheltering which is passive, complacent and plagued by convenience killing, with a proactive, can-do attitude and work ethic that rejects killing. The programs of the No Kill Equation require dedication and effort and for this reason, are sometimes portrayed by the traditional sheltering establishment as “controversial.” They are not. They are simple  procedures that Americans would be shocked to learn shelters are not already doing.

When a shelter director says they are “opposed to No Kill,” it means they reject foster care in favor of killing, reject vaccinations and medical care in favor of killing, reject knocking on doors to get lost dogs home rather than killing, and reject adoptions in favor of killing. In other words, they are advocating killing in the face of readily-available, cost-effective alternatives to killing. The same is true of each and every program of the No Kill Equation, because when a shelter implements them comprehensively, they achieve No Kill. .



A No Kill shelter can be a public, municipal agency and there are several No Kill animal control shelters run by government to prove it. 




Who am I? a volunteer for a rescue. I became involved by adopting, then I fostered. Bingo brought me and others so much love. But,  I lost a sweet soul that was a kill shelter rescue, he went to the Rainbow Bridge before I was ready. . I cherished every moment with him. I will continue to morn but because of the joy he brought me, feel the need to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves.
