SPARKLE UPDATE
January 25, 2002

Highway and Jake Are Missing They may be in the Canton, OH area or in West Virginia. Kim Moyers adopted them, no longer has them, and refused to reveal their whereabouts. We would just like to know that they are OK, or if not, what happened to them.

Looking for a particular breed of dog? Please check the shelter and breed rescue links on this page. 25-30% of shelter dogs are purebred. If you buy, they will die.

Dog Buyers Beware

Puppy Mill Video

Petland Puppy Stories

If you have bought a puppy at the Huntington Mall Petland, South Point Petland, Ashland Petland, or any other pet store in any area, you can research your dog by clicking on the banner above. Or you can contact USDA APHIS and request an inspection report on the puppymill where your dog came from. Many of these commercial breeders have hundreds and hundreds of dogs. An inspection report I received recently included a dog with a broken back who had not received vet care, and two dogs with ingrown collars. Click HERE to see one of his dogs that was purchased at a dog auction. Did your dog come from this breeder? PLEASE DON'T BUY WHILE MILLIONS DIE!

IAMS: A RECIPE FOR CRUELTY

Alert! There were 348 RAT TERRIERS available on Petfinder in 2002. In 2003 there were 601. Now, in 2006, there are 952. There are too many homeless of EVERY breed. Please don't breed or buy while great little dogs like these are homeless. Some won't find a home. IF we stop buying, they will stop breeding. Adopt your next pet and let the breeders and pet stores know how you feel about their contribution to the pet overpopulation problem.

SPAY AND NEUTER YOUR PETS

Put shelters and rescues out of business. Think of it this way. Your pet dog has a litter of eight puppies. You find homes for them all. Now eight dogs will be killed at your local shelter, because there are eight fewer homes to place them in. Or you buy a puppy from a pet store. There's another home gone and another homeless pet killed. There are very few legitimate reasons to breed. Five thousand pets are killed each DAY in this country.

YOU CAN HELP!

  • Have your pets spayed or neutered to cut down on the abundance of unwanted puppies and kittens.
  • Volunteer your time at a local shelter.
  • Provide a foster home for an abandoned pet.
  • Adopt a pet and give it a good home INDOORS with you and your family. Dogs are pack animals and become very unhappy if left alone outdoors, especially on chains. The United States Department of Agriculture has stated that tethering (chaining) is cruelty to animals.
  • BOYCOTT PETLAND AND OTHER PET STORES THAT SELL PUPPIES AND KITTENS. Pet stores are a major source of breeding stock for backyard breeders. And the parents of those pet store puppies suffer every day of their lives to stock pet store shelves.
  • BOYCOTT BACKYARD BREEDERS
    Backyard breeders are producing puppies for profit. This is selfish and irresponsible. Shelter pets are dying by the thousands every day. For every backyard bred puppy that is sold, a shelter pet will die.
