Thanks Ammi.
I've higlighted your point above. I'm not just thinking about people re homing a dog. That's great if it happens for sure but i'm also looking at the bigger picture. Those dogs would get more time out of the kennel which makes for healthier happy dogs. I'm aware that lots of people simply can't have a dog, rented flat/homes etc old age and lots of other reasons but at the same time those same people could walk those dogs and enjoy getting outdoors.
