Great site here. In the south there are many "kill shelters" only bcs towns and municipalities do not have funding...sadly the poor dogs and other pets pay the price...
here are two links plus you can use petfinder.com for the state you are in...
It breaks my heart knowing that beautiful loving dogs are destroyed bcs people cant afford to feed them- pls check these sites and type in search if you are looking for a certain breed
Thanks and know you are helping a loving dog or cat have a new lease on life....
