Adopt Your Next Pet and Help End Animal Cruelty
We know it's tempting when you see those cute dogs in the pet store window. But, remember, they may have been raised in puppy mills, where animals frequently suffer from dehydration, starvation, and hygiene-related illnesses.

According to the Humane Society of the United States, puppy mills keep dogs in poor conditions, and often slaughter animals once their breeding days are done. These animals are bred specifically to be sold, while millions of dogs and cats without homes are euthanized in shelters ever year.
There's no reason to perpetuate the inhumane puppy mill industry. Join with the Humane Society, the ASPCA, and dozens of other animal rights organizations: pledge to get your next pet at an animal shelter.
I pledge to adopt my next pet from an animal shelter, thus saving a life that would otherwise be euthanized, and fighting the inhumane treatment of animals at puppy mills.
