The Issue

Animals are everything. They aren't able to advocate for themselves, so we have to. Unfortunately, too often, cases of animal abuse involving dogs and other animals go unnoticed, unreported, or misunderstood.

OhMyDog is taking a stand against unethical practices within the pet industry. This includes practices associated with companies like Dogwise, calling for increased transparency, accountability, and education. It is vital that those involved in this industry operate with the utmost care and respect for the creatures they serve.

Recent investigations and documented concerns highlight alarming trends in the treatment of animals by some organizations within this industry. There are reports of inadequate living conditions, neglect, and other morally questionable practices that compromise the welfare of these animals. This should not stand.

This petition is about raising awareness of these concerns and encouraging responsible practices. We believe in documenting and verifying evidence to hold companies accountable, and in promoting a culture of transparency and respect for all animals. This isn't about harassment or spreading misinformation; it's about ensuring that animals receive the protection and ethical treatment they rightly deserve.

By signing this petition, you are joining a movement committed to improving the standards of the pet industry and advocating for those who cannot speak for themselves. Please sign and share this petition to demand change and make the industry safer and more humane for all animals. Your support is crucial in bringing these issues to light and prompting meaningful action. Over an extended period, Dog Wise Academy has been the subject of repeated reports and allegations concerning negligence and abusive practices. These concerns have emerged across multiple cases and from multiple individuals, indicating a troubling pattern rather than isolated incidents. Additionally, there have been claims that senior leadership, including the CEO, has attempted to discourage or pressure individuals from speaking publicly about their experiences. Such actions, if accurate, raise significant ethical concerns and undermine transparency, accountability, and trust within the organization. These matters warrant serious attention and independent review to ensure the safety, welfare, and rights of all clients and animals involved.

Please help us fight against companies like this.
