Hi Everyone,



The Humane Society of the United States' eight-month investigation reveals that many Petland stores across the country are marketing puppy mill puppies to unsuspecting consumers. I hope you will join me and urge Petland to stop selling puppies. There are 12 Petland stores in Texas and Petland currently has 140 stores in the United States and 63 in foreign markets. More than 25 new domestic stores are scheduled to open within the next twelve months. An 8 month investigation by HSUS found that Petland is the nations #1 retail supporter of Puppy Mills. HSUS tracked over 16,000 puppies shipped to Petland stores. It will only take a minute of your time to go to the link below and do your part to help stop the suffering of so many animals by telling Petland to stop selling puppies. You can also watch a video put together by HSUS that shows information on what their investigation uncovered. Here is the link:

Thanks so much for your help and support from all the poor mom-ma's at the puppy mills and me.
