With YOUR help, more than 700,000 people were educated about the pet store/puppy mill connection and more than 106,000 educational materials were distributed throughout the month of October. Teddy was ‘counting’ on you and you came through!
Teddy, a puppy mill survivor and spokes-dog against puppy mills, was the inspiration behind our Halloween-themed awareness campaign. Because of health concerns, Teddy had to visit his doctor (aka “the bloodsucker”) for a series of blood tests and one day he decided to wear his vampire costume to an appointment … and the idea was born!
