| Puppy Mills!!! Can WE make a difference? Ok so there was that thread yesterday that really inspired me. (Akc registered puppy in pet store. Is that ok?) I wake up so mad about the puppy mills situation... Couldn't stop thinking about it. So what can I do ? You guys all know... I am sure most of you feel the same way. So here it is... hope you guys will agree with me and help ... I think it is worth a try. I REALLY THINK THAT IF EVERYBODY WITH A DOG RELATED WEBSITE ADD A PAGE (OR LINK) EXPLAINING/SHOWING THE TRUTH ABOUT PET STORE AND PUPPY MILLS, THE MESSAGE WILL PASS AROUND AND WE CAN REALLY MAKE A DIFFERENCE. I don't think that anyone watching "Ophra's Puppy Mills Special" will ever buy a dog from the pet store. And all those horrible pictures of Mills on the net... just stay hurtfully in your head for ever... so share the info.. all over. No I am not the first thinking about doing that... thank good for that! Right now it is all over the news... new laws, puppy mills... This is why I really think we can help RIGHT NOW as the subject is hot. There is to many people out there that just don't know...and go to the pet store...So lets tell them all ok!! And to anyone already doing it... love you. So I add a page call " BEWARE" on my site regarding Mills. I feel a little better for doing it! It is after all way better that just crying about it isn't it? |

| You know, that is an excellent suggestion. I have a website and can add a lot of pages. I am dedicating a page just for that "BEWARE." We have to keep the awareness going and with todays technology with the internet this is the best route to take. |

| Question- does anyone know if it's legal to make a flyer concerning the info and post it on poles or windows, etc NEAR puppy stores in which sell puppies?

I've heard of some people decorating their car with fliers and parking in front of the store in legal public parking. I always thought that idea was pretty brilliant-- they can't tow you if you're parked at a city meter in front of the store and if all the fliers are in the car, nobody is able to pull them down.

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Piggybacking on this idea - you could also add a default signature for all of your regular emails (through hotmail or gmail or whatever) - that has to do w/ puppy mills.
