About this Petition Petition Letter Petition Updates

Every year, over 5 million companion animals in the U.S. are euthanized (humanely and inhumanly) simply because they were bred without a home to go to. One animal bought from a store is one animal killed at a shelter. We can make a difference!

Across Canada there is a movement to try to restrict sales from puppy mills.  Such a simple concept!  Tell your law makers to a law preventing the sale of bred animals in Pet Shops!  Only sell animals from local shelters, rescues, and owner surrenders (no fees acepted).

Let us join together to reach out to our local, state, and federal legislators to help make this same change across the U.S.

Sign this petition and reach out to your local legislators to let them know this is a change you want to see.
