A Puppy Store-Free-LA

Nationwide, 25% of dogs in shelters are pure breeds and almost all puppies sold in stores come from puppy mills. We have mounted a volunteer-driven campaign to end the sale of puppy mill dogs in Los Angeles by holding peaceful protests at local pet stores to encourage the public to boycott stores that purchase dogs from irresponsible breeders, and to encourage the public to adopt from shelters and rescue groups.

We have found that Puppy store demonstrations are extremely effective opportunities to educate the public about the realities of puppy mills and the benefits of adopting rather than buying a pet.
