Announced inspections combined with USDA's refusal to release the identity of dog breeders on inspection reports is a continuing effort by USDA to whitewash the sordid puppy mill industry.
PLEASE PICK UP THE PHONE AND CALL USDA
Tell USDA to stop enabling bad breeders and enforce the law as mandated by Congress. Remind USDA that it is the
Animal Welfare Act not the
Pet Breeders Welfare Act. USDA's Congressional mandate is to
eliminate substandard breeders, not
protect them.
According to USDA, "
We have not made a final decision about using announced inspections."
You therefore have an opportunity to stop this policy before it is implemented.
THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
