I am sure there are PETA members that disagree with PETA's position about breeding dogs (if they were even aware of it), but it IS PETA's position-- it is one of their Factsheets. See PETA Media Center > Factsheets > The AKC and Dog Breeders: Partners in Crime
I have read it and I read it again the first time it was linked. I have no problem with this factual article. I'm sure we all agree that there is a heartbreaking number of dogs put down every year. Educating about puppy mills and encouraging adoption over purchasing is not a horrible thing in my opinion. It is not the same as the statement made by Ingrid at all.
