Instead of euthanizing dogs who bite children/people

So being against not killing someone for a crime they didn't intentionally commit = bleeding heart to you?
Tax-funded is ideal, because it needs to be something recognized by the state and the legal system. Judicial courts can't legally send a dog to a nonprofit.
Tax-funding also ensures they get necessary veterinary care when required. You can't rely on donations for life-and-death situations like this. This is too crucial of an issue to reduce it to politics. These are living beings, not library books. -

I agree with everything
except for them being tax funded
. The taxpayers are WAY
too overburdened as it is. Let the dog owners and the community pay for it. They could charge a monthly fee.
MAGA! FAFO!

But you know bleeding hearts like the OP would make taxpayers foot the bill. There will be plenty of fools who don't want to pay for their antisocial dog and prefer it be euthanized.

If someone has a dog, why would any sane dog caretaker want their dog to be killed? Why would they have the dog in the first place?
This is not sane or normal thinking. The only people to wish that on their own dog are the ones who'd wish that on their old child. -

Your dog is your problem. A child is protected by law and has rights. Your nasty mutt has no rights. It's your job to keep him in line, not mine.

Your dog is protected by law in that you can be arrested for abusing him. But are you suggesting we give dogs the vote? They're not part of our human society. They have their own world.

… who don't want to pay for their antisocial dog and prefer it be euthanized.
The last dog that attacked me and several of my neighbors was euthanized.
She was probably mentally ill because of overly zealous defense of her turf across the street. Would
@Brexit Means Borders
have us build mental hospitals for dogs when so many of the human variety are on the streets for lack of funding? This is a philanthropic pipe dream. Of course only a tax pork barrel could fund it.
I believe we have been trolled guys.

If he's not trolling, he's one of the biggest idiots on film|boards. Here's another one that looks like a troll job:

I've known this fool since the Soapbox on IMDb, so for several years. Yeah, he's a troll. But he's also an animal rights lunatic and if you know anything about PETA there are people who really think like him. He's troll meets Animal Liberation Front and they become one and the same.

Never hearing a concept before =/= idiocy
Right now you are learning new things. Seeds are being planted. See you're an older guy who wasn't instilled with this concept environmentally. So it sounds foreign to you. But now you know. Seeds are planted! You will only grow as a person from her.

outside all the time?
She lived about a block away so I don't know. Whenever I saw her she was chained in an unfenced yard. The chain wasn't secure enough to keep her from breaking out way too often.

Dogs are pack animals and keeping them socially isolated is a form of cruelty
Actually, she was chained with other dogs. The pound wanted $300 to bail her out after all the complaints. The owners didn't pay it. There wasn't a problem with their remaining dogs.

Sometimes animals rebel from being confined. The story of Tyke really affected me and I don't hold her to blame. It's the ones who abused her who are to blame
Tyke (1974 – August 20, 1994) was a female African bush elephant from Mozambique who performed with Circus International of Honolulu, Hawaii. On August 20, 1994, during a performance at the Neal Blaisdell Center, she killed her trainer, Allen Campbell, and seriously injured her groomer, Dallas Beckwith.

Oh, No! Now, Brexit will want the taxpayers to fund an elephant sanctuary! Finding homes for old elephants isn't that easy. When Mila in New Zealand needed a new home, she had to go all the way to the San Diego Zoo.

Would @Brexit Means Borders have us build mental hospitals for dogs
No, just sanctuaries, as I mentioned, that would have veterinarians on site that would deal with mentally ill animals.
Of course only a tax pork barrel could fund it.
It shouldn't be just localized funding. State and even fed! same as prisons and (human) mental facilities.
when so many of the human variety are on the streets for lack of funding?
So let's not tax-fund animal sanctuaries because there's lack of human funding? Sounds more like you just illustrated problems with mentally ill funding more than anything to say about what we should do with animals.
Like I said, donations and fees can be its first resource. People can (and will) even donate large bags of food and toys. Tax-funding is there are a reserve, if and when needed, and to have it officially recognized by the state. Donations cannot support a large field of animals, who need food and medical care. If it did, great, but it still needs the backup.
The last thing you want to happen is to run out of money when you have 500 dogs to care for. You can't risk that.
