Peaceful pet store protests held 'round the country
Attending a protest is a daunting idea for many of us, but what better way than to get information directly to the people who need it most--those about to walk into a pet store.
The weeks before Christmas are what puppy mills look forward to the entire year. That's when more puppies are bought in pet stores than any other time of year. If you're looking for a way to have a real impact on the puppy mill industry, find and attend a peaceful protest this month. Simply talking to just one person makes a huge difference!
