Puppy Mills Fuel Retail Pet Stores in New Jersey: Just a Fact

PUPPY MILLS: Cruelty and Suffering

The main problem we have in New Jersey is the 22 remaining retail pet stores that fuel the puppy mill >> pet store pipeline.

Even during a pandemic, when many businesses have been ordered to close, and animal organizations around the country have halted charitable life-saving transports of animals out of respect for public health, NJ’s puppy milling pet stores continue to sell puppy mill dogs. A HSUS-led coalition request to Gov. Murphy to change this via executive order was unfortunately denied by his office a couple weeks ago.

ALDF, ASPCA, HSUS, BEST FRIENDS: PLEASE NO MORE ADDRESS LABELS?

In the last two weeks, I’ve received from animal rescue and welfare organizations to which I’ve donated, two sets of almost identical return address labels, a pocket calendar, and two membership cards. Among other things.

Please STOP sending these things. I don’t want them, I won’t use them, and the money you’re spending to send me what amount to tchothkes isn’t going where it should: to help homeless and abused animals.

I don’t want to be sarcastic, but I know where I live; I rarely if even mail anything anyway, I don’t need a calendar because I have a phone, and in fact I can enter appointments into that phone’s calendar; and there’s no one to even show a membership card to–my beloved Pittie Popeye only reads Croat. And he says “Prestanite slati sitnice!”

So please, when things are back to normal, I’ll start donating again. But I won’t if you don’t stop wasting my money on that stuff. You can even put your newsletters online for a fraction of what you’re spending to print and mail them. These things don’t help critters.

Thank you!
