What steps does the Wisconsin Puppy Mill Project take in fighting puppy mills?
We have been working on legislation, providing relief to mill animals, and educating the public about commercial breeding facilities since 1998. We attend events, give lectures and presentations, have hosted Round Table discussions with legislators, lobbied legislators in Madison and Washington DC. We’ve distributed materials like bumper stickers and tee shirts to help spread public awareness. We are circulating a petition that will be presented to our state legislators, and already have nearly 10,000 signatures. We attend protests of the Thorp Dog Auction and pet shops that sell puppy mill puppies. The Wisconsin Puppy Mill Project reaches people all over the world with our extensive website, and we answer many, many questions via email.
