שבת שלום.

I just adopted 2 Chiweenies that were left in a burlap bag with 4 other siblings that didn't make it. The mother was also put in the bag with a gunshot to the leg. I am so thankful to have them...please foster or adopt from a shelter. My furbabies came from Alabama and I live in Connectiicut. It was worth the trip. Thank you...<3

This is a cause I truly believe in You support is needed and appreciated xxx's.

The rights of "wards" like animals have to be preserved. For that we as conscious humans had to stand proud and tall. With backbone against those with a lobby for just making their wealth of the suffering of animals. That's why I am here. Walking the path of mother nature and giving it support. Bad enough that this is needed anyhow.

GOVERMENTS SHOULD GET INVOLVED AND BAN ANY SHOP THAT SELLS PUPPIES OR ANY ANIMAL! STOP THE BUSINESS WITH ANIMALS IN GENERAL! BUILD MORE PLACES TO KEEP ANIMALS IN NEED OR SAVED FROM ABUSER OWNERS OR ANIMALS FOUND ON THE STREET - PUT THEM TO ADOPTION! BUT ONLY TO PEOPLE WITH A PATENT TO KEEP A PET! GOVERMENTS CAN CREAT MORE JOBS - WITH MORE INVESTIGATIONS ON ANIMAL ABUSER AND GIVE VERY HIGH FINES TO THOSE WHO ARE CAUGHT ABUSING AN ANIMAL! CHANGE LAWS AND MAKE THEM MORE STRONG IN ORDER TO STOP...

AND MOSTLY STOP MAKING BUSINESS WITH CINA WHO ARE POISNING OUR PETS WITH THEIR PET FOOD TREATS AND TOYS FOR PETS!

Please ask anyone you think might be interested in fostering or adopting an animal from a shelter, to take this pledge. Thank you, Jan, a Retiree Rescuer

AWESOME EFFORT! WE NEED MORE PEOPLE LIKE YOU STANDING UP FOR THE ANIMALS WHO DON'T HAVE A VOICE AND THE ABILITY TO STAND UP FOR THEMSELVES! THIS IS WHY I GIVE TO ANIMAL CHARITIES AS MUCH AS I CAN... WE CANNOT ONLY DECIDE TO CARE ABOUT THE BEINGS THAT LOOK AND SOUND LIKE US. IF WE ARE TRULY A COMPASSIONATE SPECIES, WE WOULD BE COMPASSIONATE TOWARDS ALL CREATURES AND BEINGS THAT FEEL PAIN, NOT JUST THE ONES THAT LOOK LIKE US...
