PENINSULA HUMANE DIRECTOR SPEAKS OUT ON SB250

San Mateo was the first city in the United States to try Mandatory Spay and Neuter.  They found that euthanasia went up in those parts of the County affected by the MSN law while it decreased in the other parts of the County.  They also saw licensing compliance reduce by 35% the first year.  

San Mateo now takes a different approach to this issue, using education and free spay and neuter programs.  And they have been steadfast in their opposition to MSN as they have personally seen the negative unintended consequences.   You will find Director Ken White's comments on SB250 interesting.
