Afterpay having 'direct impact' on number of dogs Auckland Council shelters euthanise - Lemmy NZ
I’m really not sure how to feel about this one. On one hand its great that less
dogs are being put down. On the other hand people who got their dog impounded
and couldnt afford $93 are taking an after pay loan to get it back. As someone
who used to live in south auckland I feel like this is going to make the roaming
dog problem way worse. If you’re getting your dog impounded and after paying $93
then you are probably not equipped to be owning a dog.
