Ditto what others have said - these stray animals are suffering, are making other pups to suffer the same fate, and pose a health and safety risk to humans and domestic animals.
Euthanasia is preferable to being hit by a car is preferable to starvation is preferable to being killed by another dog or animal.
If you are able to afford vet care, food, etc, then by all means take in as many as you wish, but don't leave the rest to die on the streets even if the only alternative is death in a shelter.

There are different kinds of strays. Abandoned dogs are not too bad, simply a nuisance. Dogs raised as strays by strays since being born a stray are pretty dangerous. Im a dog lover too but people created your problem and it requires a sad fate for these animals for the safety of your neighborhood. Call animal control.

Do you have an Animal control that can pick them up .
unfortunately with so many stray dogs and shelters at breaking point euthanasia is high .

Have them picked up by animal control. They are better off euthanized, than roaming the streets, being hungry, If they are injured, somehow, they suffer. Is that a life for a dog?
