Dead Dog Beach/Tourism Boycott

New York, NY, United States
Created May 1, 2008

The Issue

What if you could end animal cruelty?

Today, there are an estimated 200,000 homeless dogs and cats roaming the streets and beaches of Puerto Rico.  With 4 shelters/4 control agencies on an island the size of Connecticut, 90% of these animals will either die of starvation, illness, or murder.  Hundreds of carcasses can be found lining the roads and thousands more are buried in the sand.  With almost no help from the Puerto Rican or U.S. governments, the island's animal crisis continues to grow out of control.  You can help STOP the violence and devastation.  Learn more at www.islanddog.org.  Send a donation.

Pledge to boycott Puerto Rico.  Write to the Puerto Rico Tourism Company informing them of your pledge.  Send an email or a letter to the address below:
