The Need for Accountability According to DoSomething.org, approximately 7.6 million companion animals enter animal shelters nationwide every year. Of those, approximately 3.9 million are dogs. In an article from AngloInfo, 45% of Mexican families own dogs. Unfortunately, there is a dark side to Mexico's 'love' of dogs. Of the country's total dog population, about 70% are homeless, either offspring of unsterilised dogs or abandoned by their owners. Mexico has the highest number of stray dogs in all Latin America and it's increasing by up to 20% every year. In Mexico City alone, over 1.2 million dogs are homeless, with thousands being rounded up and killed by electrocution every month. The education of pet ownership is broken or not understood fully. With these alarming statistics continuing to rise, there needs to be a convergence of human empathy and above all, accountability to understand pet ownership and what it entails. At My New Hope Foundation, we intend to bridge hope with all dogs that come into our care.
