I was very disturbed this morning by a front page article in the Los Angeles Times. It talked about the horrible conditions within most of the animal shelters in SoCa. Sometimes dogs squeezed into small cages fit for a hamster.

These places have cozy false-fronts where they show you the animals when considering adoption, but they don't take you back to the kennels where the less adoptable dogs reside.

72,000 dogs are in these shelters and 37,000 will be euthanized. I'm sure most are unaltered ghetto pit bulls, but still! I swear there should be a license qualification to own a dog, with a stability test, and proof of at least three years at the same address.
