Stop the Puppy Raffle

Stop the Puppy Raffle

The Issue

How is it acceptable to raffle off a beautiful, living, breathing puppy? Animals deserve more than that. Do you do home checks? Take applications and screen them? For a freakin' dollar a person can get what could potentially be a bait dog or end up in somebody's back yard tied to a tree and left to his little dog house. Raffle off spay/neuter/vaccination packages to people who already have pups. Raffle off vouchers to have animals chipped. Raffle off a free day (or week) of doggie day care. This dog has so much more potential to live a happy life if he's turned over to a reputable rescue or even donated to be trained as a service animal for somebody in need.
