Georgia euthanizes 90,000 adoptable dogs each year, more than New York, New Jersey and Oregon combined. Another horrible fact is that some shelters in Georgia still use the gas chamber as a means of euthanizing these animals; it’s a cruel and inhumane death.

The goal of SGD to stop this practice and to implement plans that not only rescues many more animals from shelters, but to help prevent animals from ending up in these shelters in the first place. Their goal is to implement programs for spay/neuter clinics and to lobby for mandatory spay/neuter requirements in local counties, to start a heart worm prevention/treatment fund to help low income families keep their pets healthy, humane education programs for local schools and a program to help victims of domestic violence who are staying in abusive situations because they don’t want to surrender their pets.
