This simple law could shut down puppy mills

Ban U.S. Pet Stores From Selling Puppy Mill Dogs. Help End This Horrific Cruelty! Sign Now Dear friends, Puppy mills are horrific operations where dogs are kept in cramped cages, denied healthcare, and relentlessly bred until they die — or are killed for being sick and old. Despite this cruelty, puppy mills remain a source of puppies sold at U.S. pet stores. California and Maryland have banned pet stores from carrying animals that come from commercial breeders. Now, we need the other 48 states to step up. Sign and tell every state to pass a law preventing pet stores from carrying puppy mill animals. Puppy mills exist because people are still buying animals from them. These laws are a powerful way to disrupt the flow of abused animals and shut these operations down. These animals have no voice. If we don't speak for them, they will continue to suffer. Take action today to help end the sale of puppy mill dogs in pet stores in the U.S. Thank you,   Ashley A. The Care2 Petitions Team P.S. Disrupt this cruel industry of animal abuse by asking every state to pass a law preventing pet stores from selling puppy mill animals.
