Write to OPRAH!!! Please write to OPRAH about puppy mills. If everyone write their concerns to her, maybe she will do show about the mills and get people aware of whats going on. It angers me so much to see what they are doing to these poor creatures. Please write to her. |
That's probably a good idea. You could even write to some of the news shows on at night, like 20/20 or primetime Thursday or ones of those. |
That is such a great idea! She is the right person.. I admire her very much because she is so giving and intelligent and really, honestly cares about the less fortunate people of this world. She also adores animals as much as any of us! :p She's coming to Dallas soon and I was trying to get a ticket to her show. They were abount $150... can you believe it sold out in 1 minute? That's crazy! Some lady told me that they are sold out nationwide for any date, any city. |
wow...that is a great idea...we should organize this. We all (members) can send it, and also notify members of other forums... |
Don't mean to be stupid but can you explain or give me info about puppy mill? Thanks |
here's a link about them . . . http://www.stoppuppymills.org/ |
the basic intro to that site about puppymills says . . . Puppy mills are nothing new. These mass dog-breeding operations have been around for decades, but they continue to be a problem because unsuspecting consumers keep buying those adorable puppies in the pet store window. Or on some slick Internet site. Or even through an ad in the trusted local newspaper. But behind the friendly façade of these pet shops, web sites, and newspaper ads, there often lies a puppy mill. These canine breeding facilities frequently house dogs in shockingly poor conditions, particularly for "breeding stock" animals who are caged and continually bred for years, without human companionship and with little hope of ever becoming part of a family. After their fertility wanes, breeding animals are commonly killed, abandoned or sold to another mill. The annual result of all this breeding is hundreds of thousands of puppies, many with behavior and/or health problems. The puppies will be shipped cross country by truck to be sold in pet shops, but many are also sold via newspaper classifieds or Internet sites — and are often accompanied by false claims such as, "We'd never sell puppies from a puppy mill." |
Can I? Can I post on this forum a pet store (by name) that falls under these conditions? |

I think that's a great idea. personally, I have a few choice words for Oprah, but I respect many of the things she does. Her shows in Chicago are free, but they're booked until the end of time. |
Oprah's shows are great and so are her topics. I would think along with the letters being sent to her she would want "people on her stage to talk about the puppy mills", so who is going to volunteer? hahahhaa |
