| Petland Now on My Radio Station Too - HELP! Hey ya'll, not too long back someone had talked about this horrible supporter of puppy mills advertising on the radio in their area and we all e-mailed to help educate the station people and to try to stop Petland. Well, now it has turned up on my favorite station too. Mix 105.1 out of Orlando, FL is now running that same ad about matching people to a Golden Retriever puppy - it is sickening knowing where these poor babies come from. I'm hoping we can do the same e-mailing to this station to make them stop helping Petland. Ironically, most of their on-air personalities own pets and I'm sure must not be aware of the puppy mill issue... You can go to their website MIX1051.com and email from there or use these web addresses I copied from there: manager@mix1051.com programming@mix1051.com sales@mix1051.com smckenzie@cbs.com erica@mix1051.com jay@mix1051.com zack@mix1051.com jeff@mix1051.com lizzette@mix1051.com Let's flood them and increase their awareness!!!! I'll put this post on Millbusters too! Thanks, Dana |

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Getting right On it Dana - Way to go getting those email addresses ! The last time I did this for Chicago I told them I heard it while traveling if that helps anyone on how to word a good email - Radio stations do NOT want lose customers - so sometime the best way is maximum impact - saying you will never listen to them again .... The other thing is to just SAY we heard about it and news spread (in my case) ALL the way to Texas that they were promoting Petland - THIS is my email to them - I'm appalled you would run ads for Petland - I will NEVER listen to you again. Petland buys puppies from Puppy Mills - it's a huge problem and the sale of live animals in our country needs to stop - promoting Petland is signing death sentences for those poor dogs being bred for Pet Stores. Shame on you ! Sorry ...but my radio is now on a different station....you really need to be more careful about where your Ad money is coming from. Sincerely.....Villette
