Britain's Unwanted Pets - on tonight BBC1 8.30pm
Panorama BBC1 20:30 - Monday 2nd August.
Has the fashion for aggressive looking 'status' dogs contributed to the numbers of abandoned pets the authorities are now having to deal with? Panorama has gained access to one of the most famous animal rescues in the world, Battersea Dogs Home, and reveals the shocking truth of the numbers of dogs it is having to put to sleep.

Poor staffies
However, looking at things in the round, it may be as well for them to painlessly, kindly, release (ie pts) those poor creatures which have been so damaged that they can't be re-assimilated. They can then concentrate their resources on people and pets where there can be a happy resolution
Humans! Pah!

I like Staffies and think the press give them a hard time - at least, up here they do! Even although it was two Staffies that attacked Loki, it wasn't their fault - it was their owners who couldn't be bothered taking them out and left them out in the garden! It's the owners who should be pts who can't look after them, or train them properly!Thanks for the link, Azz.
Take care.

sadly I am not shocked. I used to be a good friend of a lady who had no money but a huge heart.She would take in any cat-from those thrown into fires when a couple had a row to those who no longer matched the colour scheme.
The dogs and cats suffer and die for the whim of a so called `superior` species-it makes me sick
