| Rally against Puppy Mills in Indiana Received this today and thought some of you that lived in that area might be interested in attending these events. Dear Friends, Adopters and Supporters of IPPRA As some of you are aware, a new Pet Store that sells puppies has opened up in Portage, IN. Those of you that are local have probably see the numerous articles in the NW Indiana Times. Well I, along with a vet tech from a local Vet's office, Amy Michael, have organized a peaceful protest. Please consider coming out and joining us in support of the parents of these pet shop puppies who are prisoners of greed. We are their voice. Visit www.petshoppuppies.org. to learn more. Bring a protest sign if you can and you can get ideas from here: http://www.petstorecruelty.org/protest.html Please be aware that the area is under major road construction' Location: Portage Commons Shopping Center 5896 Hwy 6 Portage, IN. 46368 Date and time: June 22nd (Sunday) at 11 a.m. Also, there is a rally in Indianapolis on July 9th: DEFEND THE DOGS! On July 9th a peaceful STATEWIDE RALLY will be held at Monument Circle in downtown Indianapolis from 11:30 a.m-2:00 p.m. We're requesting all animal lovers and humane people to join us at this rally, demonstrating Indiana citizens will no longer tolerate INDIANA PUPPY MILLS. Please pass this information on to everyone who is ready to raise awareness and to make changes in Indiana! ACT NOW - promote this event to the fullest extent. Make plans now to attend! The dogs in Indiana mills desperately need you to attend. And remember, more people means more media, and that is how things begin to get changed! DEFEND THE DOGS RALLY July 9, 2008 11:30a.m.-2:00p.m. Monument Circle in downtown Indianapolis Please RSVP to defendthedogs@yahoo.com if you will be attending. The rally is in conjunction with Jana Kohl's book tour for "A Rare Breed of Love", a book about PUPPY MILLS and ANIMAL ABUSE. Jana is attracting national attention while speaking out against PUPPY MILLS on her summer book tour. It's exciting she's chosen Indianapolis for a stop on the tour. There's not much time to promote this, so please act now. If all rescues and individuals will come together on this project, our voice will be heard! It's time to pull together, Indiana! We look forward to seeing you at the rally! For more information on puppy mills, please visit: www.petshoppuppies.org. Information on Jana Kohl and her book can be found here: http://www.simonsays.com/content/destination.cfm?tab=1&pid=345542 *Please do not bring your dogs. Hope to see you there. -- |
