❗️Help Us Take Action Against Puppy Mills
🐾 Protect Our Paws The State of Missouri is the puppy mill capital of the United States!
(1)

Puppies bred at puppy mills live in cruel and inhumane conditions, receive poor care and are then shipped across the country to pet stores like Petland And Puppy Dreams – all in the name of profit. Petland and Puppy Dreams are two of the last remaining retail stores that sell puppy mill dogs. Both companies have been pressuring the Missouri legislature to ban legislation that would ban local gover

nments from regulating pet stores. The public should be aware that puppies sold in retail stores and online are often from puppy mills. Instead of buying a dog from these stores, people should get a puppy from a shelter, rescue organization or reputable breeder. The Bark to Ban Puppy Mills campaign aims to raise awareness about puppy mills in the St. Louis region, change puppy buying habits and encourage proper legislation to protect animal welfare.

Thank You!

Your support for the Bark to Ban Puppy Mills campaign worked. The Missouri legislature has adjourned for the year and the animals are victorious! The pet store bills (HB 2265 and SB 937) went down in defeat. These bills sought to prohibit municipalities and counties from banning the sale of dogs and cats in pet stores and would have even prohibited local regulations that would safeguard the welfare of the animals, protect public health, or provide consumer protection against the sale of sick puppies and the charge of excessive interest rates.

Our animals are safe for another year!
