QUOTE: Carol Jean, you seem to have a lot of very good energy, what can we all do to get this ball rolling and make a difference, and save the lives of some of these well deserved dogs, and put an end to brokers and puppy mills!!!! And make sure all the breeders are also doing their job to be State and County governed.

--------------------------

Thank you, Donna Jean ---

I wish so much that I had more time than I have...... I am serious about this. I am 66 years old and have three jobs - I always work more than 40 hours a work and more often I work more than 50 hours a week.

I do have time to do some things - but I know for a fact that a lot of you here on YT have much more time (and energy) than I have.

I think as a start - I'll get together a list of Congressmen (from each State) that we can all write to. The truth is that they need to get thousands and thousands of letters -- and, they need to get these letters over and over again.... not just a flurry of them - and then nothing after that.

-------------

I don't know a lot about petitions - or what they can accomplish - but I think this should be looked into ....

**** Unfortunately - still (after many posts of mine on this subject) I continue to see many of you loving to jump on a soap box and state your own personal opinions - but not many of you (like Donna Jean) jumping in and saying "What can we do?"

I'll get a list of people we can write to -- but already I can think of a million other things that need to be done..... like I said earlier - trying to close puppymills in this country would be a huge job that would take a lot of people, a lot of effort, and a lot of work. It would be no easy task...right?
