OUR RESEARCH: The basis of the National Council on Pet Population Study and Policy's unification in 1993 was to: Gather and evaluate available national pet population data and relevant materials Facilitate communications between organizations that share the National Council's mission Provide expertise and resources for gathering and analyzing data pertinent to pet population Establish strategies to reduce the number of homeless pets in the U.S.A.
A survey was conducted for four years to gather data regarding the numbers of animals entering and leaving animal shelters. The result of the Shelter Statistics Survey, 1994-97, is available below. The survey examined where the animals came from and where they went. Two studies were identified and completed resulting in several publications in the Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science. The publications resulting from these two studies are: CURRENT STUDIES: The NCPPSP has two research studies underway:
Pets and the Family - Marvin B Sussman - Google Books. Presidential Pets: A Retrospective. Prints & Photographs Online Catalog. The Western Front - Home. The Bellingham Herald - Archive Search Results. News, sports and weather for Bellingham and Whatcom County, WA. APHIS - Animal Welfare - Animal Care. USDA Animal Care is responsible for upholding and enforcing the Animal Welfare Act and the Horse Protection Act.
The Animal Welfare Act and its associated regulations require that federally established standards of care and treatment be provided for certain warm-blooded animals bred for commercial sale, used in research, transported commercially or exhibited to the public. The Horse Protection Act and its associated regulations seek to put an end to soring (a procedure in which horses are subjected to chemical and/or mechanical irritants in order to enhance their gait) by preventing sored horses from participating in exhibitions/shows/sales/auctions. The Center for Animal Welfare collaborates with other animal welfare entities to play a central role in USDA’s efforts to: build partnerships domestically and internationally; improve regulatory practices; and reach beyond USDA’s traditional enforcement role to develop outreach, training and educational resources.
