Shelter workers don't want to euthanise either.
... sorry, if I expand on that sentence this will become a fratching thread.
Anyway: don't restrict yourself to shelters when deciding where to surrender him. Many vets will treat a treatable patient if the owners will surrender him/her, simply because they became vets to care for animals. The pet then gets given a good home with a family the vet knows who have a need for a pet.
Vets know their patients and their patients' families more intimately than any shelter can know the people who walk into the shelter.
