Best Friends launched a Puppies Aren't Products campaign in Los Angeles, and it has been an ongoing success! PAP is not meant to put puppy stores out of business, but rather to encourage stores to help shelter puppies and rescues, rather than buy from breeders and inhumane puppy mills. They are there to help raise awareness about the puppy trade and the cruelty behind it. So far, many LA puppy stores have changed their tactics and have helped to find homes for rescues.
I'm very excited to say that Best Friends has branched out to Las Vegas in this effort and has kicked off a Las Vegas Puppies Aren't Products campaign. I'm very much looking forward to continuing peaceful demonstrations and helping to raise awareness for this effort. We'll be demonstrating outside Chi-Chi Couture to help educate the public and the store owners.
