Dogs can't Add,
Cat's can't Subtract,
But they sure can MULTIPLY!

An unspayed female dog, her mate and all of their puppies, if none are ever neutered or spayed, add up to:

1 year:    16
2 years:   128
3 years:   512
4 years:   2,048
5 years:   12,288
5 years:   67,000 dogs!!

There aren't enough good homes for all of these dogs.
Be a responsible pet owner.

Spay or neuter your pet!
