There are hundreds of thousands of dogs that have been surrended to shelters. Some people drop a dog off at a shelter when they have a baby, as "too much work". And some even leave a dog behind in an empty apartment when they move. There are so many stories of severe animal abuse that it's heartbreaking. I won't even discuss them here.

That's French law. I too believe that the law can go too far in other directions. People look for too easy answers when there usually are not any.
