Ireland still suffers from a serious animal welfare problem caused by the failure of pet owners to have their dogs and cats spayed or neutered. Tens of thousands of dogs end up in Ireland’s dog pounds, and many of them end up being euthanased because they cannot find a home. The answer to this issue is simple: universal spaying and neutering of all pet dogs and cats.
Why do people refuse to have their pets spayed or neutered? The volunteers at SpayAware want to find out more about the way that people think about this subject, so they’ve put together an ultra-brief survey. We need to know about attitudes to spay/neuter if we want to try to change them.
