Well, techinecly my research shows that there are a lot. :)
On average, around 1.5 million shelter animals are euthanized every year in the United States, with about 670,000 dogs and 860,000 cats being euthanized. This breaks down to approximately 4,500 dogs and cats euthanized each day.

The primary consideration is health of the animal - an animal with severe injuries or disease is more likely to be euthanized for humane reasons. Probably the second most used factor is age - younger animals are more adoptable, so older animals tend to be euthanized faster. Other factors include the reason the animal was given to the shelter - fighting animals, aggressive animals and behavior problem animals are more likely to be euthanized because they aren't safe to adopt out, while animals that were given up because the owner couldn't take the pet with him/her to a new house are much easier to get adopted out. There may also be local ordinances that require certain breeds (usually pit bulls, German shepherds, Doberman pinchers, etc.) to be euthanized rather than adopted, or the facility may have a policy of euthanizing after so many days in the shelter.
It is estimated that there are between 1.5 to 2 million dogs euthanized every year. This would translate to 0.06 dogs euthanized each second.
