Subject: Thank you from The HSUS puppy mills campaign
Dear Mr Hiskes,
I am writing to thank you for posting the update about the Petland lawsuit on your Blog last week, and especially to thank you for your support of our efforts to combat puppy mills and also for being a humane breeder!
The HSUS wholeheartedly supports responsible dog breeders, we publish several guides for the public to help them find and identify a good dog breeder, including our Puppy Buyer’s Guide and our Good Breeder Checklist. These are available for free on our website or by mail. You can see the Puppy Buyer’s Guide at http://www.humanesociety.org/issues/puppy_mills/tips/finding_good_dog_breeder.html%20and%20download%20our%20Good%20Breeder%20Checklist%20at%20http://www.humanesociety.org/assets/pdfs/pets/puppy_mills/how_find_good_dog_breeder.pdf
The more good breeders that start coming forward to say “I am against puppy mills,” and say it loudly and proudly, we have an even greater chance at helping the animals in the facilities providing substandard care!
If you would like to know more about our work with breeders, please do not hesitate to contact me. We would be delighted to stay in touch with you!
Sincerely,
Beau
