For decades in Romania street dogs have been killed in vain attempts to control their population, using barbaric methods as the most usual way of killing the animals. As we have noticed, the animals keep repopulating regardless of the killing. When dogs are killed in an area, others move into the area and repopulate it. So the vicious cycle of killing animals does not work. Only Catch Neuter and Return has been proven to decrease the unwanted street dog population. When 80% of the dogs are sterilized, there is a 0% population growth. Sterilization (spay/neuter) is a win-win. It humanely decreases the unwanted street dog population, eventually eliminating it altogether.

As many of you are aware, spaying and neutering are the only true means to control unwanted animal births. This includes spay/neuter of owned dogs as well as strays. Often owned dogs are allowed out of doors off leash, contributing to the population of unwanted litters of puppies. A proactive public measure to spay/neuter not only strays but also owned and breed dogs will quickly diminish the unwanted stray dog population. Did you know that one female dog and her offspring can produce up to 67,000 puppies in six years? And dogs that have been neutered are less aggressive, and tend not to roam in packs. Spay/neuter is also the kindest measure one can take to ensure the overall health of the animal. Spay/neuter can eliminate the onset of many tumors and cancers, including testicular and prostate cancer in male dogs and mammary cancers in female dogs.
