Day 361: Puppy Mills Bite!

Day 361: Puppy Mills Bite!

Have you ever received a gift that:

a) Stirs a reaction in people?

b) Starts a meaningful conversation?

c) Creates awareness to a cause worthy of support?

All that in one gift. Luck me – I just got one and I had to share with you the impact I am making every time I wear it!

Day 361: Give 361

Do you know what a Puppy Mill is? Do you know how many dogs spend their lives in conditions that are so horrible they are hard to describe? Some of these images may help to explain the life of a dog in a puppy mill. It’s not a life at all.

The t-shirt I received is made by a company called The Fleas Knees. Their mission is simple- bring awareness and funds ($5.00 from every shirt sold) to Best Friends Animal Society:  Puppies Aren’t Products Campaign.

Puppy Mills“The World Society for the Protection of Animals estimates there are 600,000,000 unwanted dogs globally.”

This t-shirt is a gift you can give that will keep giving every time the receiver wears it. Just by wearing a t-shirts with a message like this one can bring awareness and compassion to dogs that truly need it.

Buy a shirt but most importantly don’t buy a “Puppy Mill puppy” and tell your local pet store to stop supporting an industry that creates so much pain.

Time Commitment: 0

Cost: 0 (it was a gift!)
