Hi again Informed. I had to paste parts of your post here in my response so I didn't forget to address what you asked about. These are my opinions, I don't believe I know everything so if you don't like what I have to say, it won't offend me. I wrote my version of an answer in capitals, but I'm not yelling, just distinguishing my typing from yours:
"Other than blasting the dogs at the dump, what animal control is there?" THAT IS THE SOLE MEANS OF ANIMAL CONTROL IN THIS AREA AND MOST OF THE OTHERS THAT I WORK ON. IT SOUNDS CRAZY BUT TRUE. IF THERE WERE OTHER MEANS IN THESE AREAS, I PROBABLY WOULDN'T HAVE STARTED SENDING ANIMALS OUT TO BE SPAYED/NEUTERED OR PICKING PUPPIES OUT OF DITCHES (I WAS LUCKY TO FIND AAS TO HELP ME WITH THIS, AS I FELT LIKE I WAS SINKING AND JUST COULDN'T DO IT ALL MYSELF)

"What do they do to round up theses feral dogs?" THE DOG'S ARE ALL CONSTANTLY HUNGRY, SO THE "DOG CATCHER" AS HE'S AFFECTIONATELY REFERRED TO, PUTS MEAT IN THE BACK OF HIS PICK UP AND SIMPLY DRIVES TO THE DUMP. EVEN THE DOGS THAT HAVE BECOME FERAL ARE NOT AGGRESSIVE THOUGH, IT SEEMS THEY HAVE DEVELOPED A SURVIVAL MECHANISM WHICH CAUSES THEM TO BECOME TIMID RATHER THAN AGGRESSIVE. AN AGGRESSIVE DOG IS SHOT ON THE SPOT, WHILE A TIMID DOG BUYS MORE TIME FOR HIMSELF.

"If enablers stop performing what they see as needed, then the common cruelty occurring in your area will spread through out the province." IT REALLY IS ALREADY THROUGHOUT THE PROVINCE, JUST HIGHER IN SOME AREAS THAN OTHERS. IT'S NOT AS SOCIALLY ACCEPTABLE TO HAVE DOGS LIVING IN COLONIES IN EAST VAN, BUT CATS ARE EASIER FOR MOST PEOPLE TO IGNORE, WHICH I BELIEVE IS WHY IT APPEARS THERE ARE MORE CATS THAN DOGS LIVING LIKE THIS. BUT IT DEPENDS ON WHERE YOU GO, I THINK THE NUMBERS EVEN OUT WHEN YOU COMPARE ALL OF BC. HAVING SAID THAT, I COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE SAYING, AS I FELT JUST LIKE THAT TOO. FOR A LONG TIME, I STRUGGLED WITH BEING CALLED AN "ENABLER". I THOUGHT, THAT IF I DIDN'T DO IT, WHO WOULD, AND THEN WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO ALL OF THOSE ANIMALS THAT HAVE NO ONE ELSE. THE LABEL ENABLER ALSO OFFENDED ME, BECAUSE I CARE SO MUCH ABOUT EVERY ANIMAL THAT I HAVE THE PRIVILEGE OF HELPING EVEN A BIT. HOW DARE SOMEONE REFER TO ME AS AN ENABLER. BUT I'VE COME A LONG WAY SINCE THEN IN MY THINKING. I WILL NOT EVER TAKE AN ANIMAL THAT SOMEONE JUST FEELS THE NEED TO GET RID OF BECAUSE IT NO LONGER FITS INTO THEIR LIFESTYLE. I'LL ONLY DEAL WITH REAL EMERGENCIES, THE TRULY HOMELESS DOG, THE INJURED, ABANDONED ANIMALS, THE ONES THAT ARE IN DIRE CIRCUMSTANCES (AND THIS KEEPS ME PLENTY BUSY). I USED TO VOLUNTEER FOR A CAT SHELTER THAT TOOK IN EVERY CAT THAT SHOWED UP AT THE DOOR, MOST OF THE OWNERS WERE PEOPLE THAT FELT THE ANIMAL WAS AN INCONVENIENCE AS THEY WERE HAVING A BABY, MOVING, DIDN'T LIKE THE NEW BEHAVIORS THE CAT WAS SHOWING LIKE SCRATCHING FURNITURE OR PEEING OUTSIDE THE LITTER BOX, AND INSTEAD OF TRYING THE ADVICE I HAD TO GIVE, THEY JUST WANTED ME TO TAKE THE CAT. YOU PROBABLY KNOW ALREADY THAT CATS REALLY DO NOT DO WELL IN NEW STRESSFUL SITUATIONS. QUITE OFTEN THEY STOP EATING, LOSE TONS OF FUR, DEVELOP BEHAVIORAL STRESS DISORDERS, IT'S AWFUL. UMMM, I JUST REALIZED HOW LONG WINDED I'M SOUNDING, SO IF YOU WANT TO EMAIL ME, FEEL FREE. MAYBE WE CAN DISCUSS ENABLING FURTHER VIA EMAIL.
