While
millions of forgotten animals are killed in our nation's shelters, the
unfortunate dogs in puppy mills are forced to produce litter after litter
until they die. Stores that sell puppies acquire them from "puppy
mills," factories where breeding dogs live their entire lives cramped
in filthy cages.
Even though our nation's shelters are overflowing with animals--an amazing
twenty-five percent of whom are purebred--puppy mills continue to generate
millions of dollars for the unscrupulous "pet" industry.
In
an effort to break this tide of misery and death, IDA will continue
targeting Petland, the nation’s largest pet store chain, and a
major retailer of puppies, kittens, and other small animals such as
rabbits and guinea pigs.
Get
involved with campaigning against puppy mills in your community. Your
help is needed to put an end to this cruel industry. Contact Hope Bohanec, Field Director at hope@idausa.org to learn more
about getting involved. Learn more about the Petland campaign and puppy
mills by visiting IDA's
Boycott Petland section.
