Unfortunately, you can't really force people to fix their pets as, I'm willing to bet, most pets are muts and other than vet records, there's no way to trace that a person is a pet owner at all. What you can do; however, is to provide some kind of incentive for pet owners to fix there pets and make the cost of that particular procedure so nominal that cost wouldn't be so much of a concern. I don't particularly like the fact that pets have to be euthanized in order to control the population but realistically, until people start showing a keener interest in "planned parenthood", I don't see a better option. Besides, have you ever been to a local dog pound? I was considering getting a dog from one and came to realize, through inspection, that the majority of them were either sick or ill-tempered. I actually took an alaskan husky home for a few days and he growled and bared his teeth at me for no reason ... back to the pound he went. You never know how previous owners may have abused their pets.
