| The
American Kennel Club (AKC) placed this ad in The New York Times
magazine July 31
|
The
AKC does not speak for all dog owners, much less all pet
owners.
PAWS
is actively opposed by more than 175 respected animal organizations,
including the American Dog Owners Association, the Cat Fanciers
Association, the U.S. Sportsmen's Alliance, the Rabbit Education
Society, and enough of AKC's own member clubs to represent
over 57% of the breeds registered.*
S
1139 is not about protecting puppies or the welfare of dogs.
It's about power and about appeasing fanatical animal rights
groups. And it will effectively put an end to the careful
home breeding of quality, healthy, safe pets and to home-based
pet rescue.
Please
stop PAWS in its tracks!
