Kudos to Anti-Petland Demonstrators!

A HUGE thanks to all those who got out yesterday in support of the HSUS campaign to get Petland to stop supporting puppy mills! Here are some of the everyday heros who protested at the Petland store in Plano, TX.




Couldn't make it? Click here and sign the petition - let's try and get to 100,000 signatures by February 1. Petland and the puppy mills it supports are making it harder for sweet dogs like this week's DAS pet of the week, Eclipse, to find homes - help save Eclipse and the puppy mill dogs!
Thanks to Pamela Burch for the photos and for being there!

I truly believe that all the time these individuals are spending that they could have raised thousands of dollars to save the lives of dogs and cats killed at the kill shelters located in Plano... come on people get your priorites straight..

Ok - first of all, the City of Plano doesn't euthanize many animals - occasionally they find themselves in the position where there simply isn't room, but only rarely. And most of these folks already spend every available minute rescuing animals, educating the public, or raising money for spay/neuter. I'd be happy to put the contributions of any oneof them up against yours. So before you criticize, you need to get to know the folks protesting, understand that Petland in fact gets their dogs from the huge commercial puppy mill Hunte Corporation - not the local breeders they say they do, and have the guts to post your name -or at least something other than "anonymous"! Simply anonymously posting lies and untruths does no one any good!
