Oh this is sooo great David!!! (FOX26NEWS) I really think the ball is rolling and we should ALL try to keep it rolling in every possible avenue .

Someone mentioned Oprah. Maybe if alot of us email her she'll do it. I think we should keep the fire burning.

Our local "no kill" animal shelter just had to euthenize some dogs today because they found some of the dogs tested positive for Parvo and possibly Rabies!!! They also had to shut their doors temporarily. This has never happened there before. As a "no kill" shelter they take every animal in. This is a newly built (state of the art) shelter and they do test and give vet care, so I'm not sure how this happened but it is really devastating for them.... well, all of us.

Well we all know that this is what happens when unwanted animals are dropped off because new owners can't take care of them or their vet bills. These are animals dropped off because they are pregnant and the people don't want to deal with the babies. These are animals that have not been spayed or neutered and continue to have unwanted litters. These are animals that are just turned loose when people decide to move and can't take their pets with them.

I am just "sick" about this and then to think these puppy mill people are still cranking out puppies really infuriates me. With the amount of members on this site, we alone should be able to "do" more.

Bring on the petitions, bring on the news and bring on Oprah!

Let's get 'er done!
