DPR Fundraiser
On November 22nd scenes like this will happen again.
Dogs, young and old, will be stacked from floor to ceiling in semi trailers, most without food and water. Most, if not all of the breeders who participate in this event are raising large number of puppies for profit in mills — mass dog breeding establishments with horrendous living conditions characterized by overcrowding, filth, lack of food, water, and little or no veterinary care. Breeder dogs at puppy mills are often crammed into cages for years at a time, without any socialization or exercise. They are bred as frequently as possible, often every six months, until they are no longer useful as breeding stock. The dogs put up for auction range from adult breeding stock to newborn puppies. Where is the demand for these dogs?
From your local pet store selling puppies.
A major dilemma faced by rescuers who will be attending the auction is whether or not to try to bid on some of the dogs. On one hand, we know that most of the dogs will be sold back into the puppy mill industry and face a horrific fate. On the other hand, by purchasing dogs, we know that we are putting money into the hands of the men that create this torture.
DPR is going for the middle ground.
We will be in attendance at the November 22nd auction in Buckeye, OH. We will not bid anymore money on one dog or litter of pups that would be economically beneficial for the miller. We want to get dogs out of the system but not support the system. It's a fine line but our intentions are to learn, educate and rescue dogs.
In order to do this, we need sponsors and pledges. The dogs will need vet care, typically lots of vet care. Our foster homes are positioning themselves to take in as many rescues as possible and are working hard by finding forever homes for our current foster pups. We're almost set but need help.
Please do share this email with your friends, family, churches, co-workers, and community organizations.
We will be leaving Friday for the 10 hour drive to arrive Saturday morning for the auction. We will than leave Saturday evening back to Delaware.
All donations raised over the next four weeks will go directly to saving a puppy mill dog in this auction. They will no longer live in a cage, no longer go without proper vet care. They will learn what grass is, what comfort is, what a real life is all about.
Donations can be made through clicking on the Visa/Mastercard line on the right hand of this page or the Paypal button.
