Since 2013, the following agencies have invested the time and resources to eliminate their gas chambers and use a euthanasia method that is kinder to their animals and better for their staff. We congratulate them on this decision, and hope that other agencies will follow their lead. Please let them know that you appreciate their commitment to the animals in their care by thanking them, supporting them financially, and adopting their available pets!
