CraigsLIst: Stop allowing people to post ads for free animals on your site.

The Issue

It is common knowledge in the rescue community that many free postings on craigslist for free dogs and cats endanger the well being of the animals being given away. Dog fighting professionals and callous re-sellers answer these ads and and assure the owners that they are going to provide a good family home. Many of these craigslist scouters use women and children to pick up the animal so that the person giving their beloved pet away is not alerted to the fact that their pet will end up in horrific conditions. Please ask Craigslist to ban ALL free animal ads and delete any that are listed.
