I feel like my shelter is always changing policies and not for the better.

When I started we would do things like 10 to 14 day medical/observational holds for under-vaccinated puppies pulled from high risk open intake shelters. Or at least they would stay in foster till their second booster. Now we're getting them neutered the very next day and adopting them out two days after that. It's hard to counsel when you're adopting out a 2 month old puppy that's only been in the shelter for a handful of days and only has the first initial booster. I think I spend a full ten minutes talking about parvo. I think at least half of me is trying to talk them out of adopting at all. Man I'm never going to adopt a puppy.
