Your chance to help animals throughout the country
The Humane Society is asking for your help in getting a bill passed:
“This summer, language was approved in the U.S. House of Representatives’ Farm Bill to (1) prohibit the use in research of dogs and cats obtained from random source dealers (who may steal pets or fraudulently obtain them through “free to good home” ads) and (2) ban the use of live animals in sales demos of medical devices. In addition, we’re also pushing Congress to (3) end imports of very young puppies, who are often crammed into life-threatening cargo holds for long distance transport to the U.S. for the pet trade, when there are plenty of puppies already here who need homes. Now, we need to jump on this opportunity to ensure that these critical protections are included in the Senate’s Farm Bill as well!”
