This is awful. The illegals come to the US, bringing their dogs with them, only to abandon them at the border. The illegals enter the USA. The poor dogs are left behind, not understanding what has happened, and left without food or water or human companionship, and no medical care. They were a part of a family and now ... poof ... they are abandoned. Thousands of them. And they are breeding.

Story Here - The Other Border Crisis
In addition to the waves of human beings crossing America’s southern border every day, another crisis is unfolding. Thousands of dogs are being abandoned by the illegal border crossers who bring their pets only to learn that the dogs can’t come in.
These dogs that are left behind are then breeding which only makes the problem worse.
What's preventing them from bringing their dog across?
Are there any lessons border patrol can learn from this?

My question to you is, has anyone asked Biden to? Or is he just supposed to know about everything all the time?
That's why we have the House of Representatives. Perhaps someone can bring it up to their Representatives so they can come up with a solution. LOL! We KNOW that ain't happen'. But that is how things USED to get done.
Now, the Republicans in the House might soon have a Senate bi-partisan border bill that gives them more than they have EVER gotten in FOURTY YEARS. And I'm telling you, they will not pass it. They need the border to be a mess. A working border does not help them.

Apparently, most US states no longer require quarantine for dogs and cats coming from other countries provided other health and veterinary conditions are met like a chip and vaccination record, not they will meet the requirements all the same.
As to lessons learned, well you don't abandon an animal, that ticks the dirty wrong'yin box in my book.
Years ago, friends of mine moved from Japan to Hawaii. They had to quarantine, have a vet statement from Japan, have a vet statement from Hawaii, have all shots, have all records, and have a residence in Hawaii. Things could be different now and different in each state.
My heart goes out to the dogs. They were part of a family. Then suddenly abandoned and left to starve by that same family they love. It's awful.

Say, where's the ASPCA, the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals? They have some graphic and heartbreaking commercials on TV for animal rescue. What about PETA, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals?

That's what i mean, how do you abandon a family member? .
Migrant families bring them on the dangerous trek to the United States, then learn that rules around animal entry mean they can’t take the pets into processing centers or on most flights or buses onward into the interior.
So the migrants let the pups go to fend for themselves, amid terrible conditions and hunger. Heartbreaking for families and for the hounds.
People who bring their dogs along as they travel through jungles and across mountains and deserts to reach our border are clearly not fleeing in search of asylum.
Pet dogs traveling thousands of miles to US-Mexico border are being abandoned by migrant owners in new crisis
They’re migrating to pursue economic opportunity — specifically, enough that they can provide not only for their kids but for their pets as well.
Indeed, migrants are reportedly bringing a whole variety of pets, including guinea pigs. Not the behavior of people desperately fleeing oppression.

It's a crime to abandon a pet. So the illegals want to make a point of telling America they really are scumbag criminals.
It won't be the last crime they commit once they get here.

Crossing into the United States without going through a check-point, is illegal. They are all a criminal at that point...except the young children.
