That's a great idea!

Awww....... thanks for naming her after me, JK.

We could even watch for ad's placed in news papers...like the one I saw recently advertising a little 2 lb. girl.. intact....

Maybe we could ask admin if a special section could be started.....don't know if they would or what we would want it titled......

Mary what an excellant idea!!! I always have my camera in my purse so from now I will take a picture and post it...it is a small start but if we can start something small maybe we can help in a small way to slow down those that sell puppys for their income! I am going to start taking signs down that advertises puppies for sale when I see them and even go a step farther when I see someone in a parking lot I will stop and warn customers they are supporting byb's...and I will find out when I can on who has billboard signs and make a point to get the word out!!! It sickens me to know people take this route!! UGH!!!! I mean advertising in the paper is bad enough!

Yep...I always take signs down.

Guess I should find a camera I can leave in my car.

Not that we would know, but if we are calling cell phone numbers, some still have plans with minutes, so we can use up their minutes as well!

When we put our heads together, we can come up with great ideas.....We also can be very evil.

We need to keep the ball rolling, I'm going up that way on Tuesday, I'll make sure and take my camera with me.

My camera is always with me because I never know when I'll need it...we are storm freaks too and when I see crazy cloud formations I take pictures so now when I see advertisments I will take pics and post them....it's one small way to cut into byb's puppy profit sales...we have to take an active stand against byb's and puppymills! If it's meant for public viewing from a highway then it's for public viewing online so it can't be used against us! We have to get involved!! This is a small and simple way for one to help if they can't physcially get out and make rounds taking pics when seen is a good way to help stop this

Great, I hope we can get more "victims" as well.

One way, is to keep this thread bumped up until we get an answer if we can have a special section for this purpose.

Don't want it taking away from other important messages, but if we keep it bumped up...it'll help get the message out other YT members that are wanting to help.
