 We continue to protest and oppose legislation that attempts to take away our choices and the freedom to own, protect, care for and enjoy our animals. |

Good News and Proactive
So often in the past months, the news has been a call to "defend" our animals. Now, soon, there will be a chance to take a step ahead, to work "for" our animals instead of having to be that step behind defending them.

MANY OF US ARE DOING SOMETHING VERY VISIBLE TO FIGHT FOR
OUR RIGHT TO OWN PETS
KEEP READING TO KNOW THE TIMELINE AND HOW YOU CAN JOIN IN THE CAMPAIGN
BUCKS FOR BILLBOARDS IN CALIFORNIA
KEEP READING AND THEN WRITE YOUR CHECK FOR A BILLBOARD
Kathy Grayson ( a Southern California handler) contacted LAMAR, one of the largest outdoor advertising billboard companies, and got prices for advertising in the Greater Los Angeles area. She found out that $6000 buys 100 billboards. That is only $60 per billboard. The economic hard times are playing in our favor here. These are the 6' x 10' billboards, not the giant ones.
On June 5, in co-operation with National Animal Interest Alliance (NAIA), a website will become operational where factual information about the HSUS agenda will be posted. On that site, you will be able to use PayPal to underwrite additional billboards. Our first goal was to buy 100 signs - that was done! Those 100 billboards will be up starting June 15, in many high traffic areas.
The billboards will say "Protect your right to own a pet" followed by the international NO sign covering HSUS / PETA. At the bottom of the billboard will be the web site so that people can get additional information and will realize that giving money to HSUS and PETA is destroying pet ownership in America. Also, the PETA mission statement will be up on that site.
OUR GOAL IS TO WALLPAPER AMERICA WITH SIGNS THAT EXPOSE HSUS AND DRY UP THEIR FUNDING. This is a chance for EACH of you to contribute to letting America and Americans know what a dangerous sham HSUS is.
