Thanks to your support, CFHS is currently working with Canadian politicians to advance a comprehensive dog protection bill that protects working dogs (police, military, etc...), while advocating for more effective legislation to shut down puppy mills (and keep them closed) and make all aspects of dog fighting illegal.
In order to advance our work we are launching our next strategic initiative – a comprehensive research report demonstrating the scope and scale of the puppy mill problem in Canada. But we need your help on Global Giving Bonus Day to make this happen. We need an additional $20,000 to fund the research, writing, translation and distribution of this essential report that will be the first of its kind exposing these deplorable mills that operate behind glossy websites, innocent-looking on-line classified ads, and pet store sales. We will demonstrate the abuse that happens when puppies are a profitable product and animals aren’t protected by the law. Our legislators won’t be able to continue to ignore the devastating reality of puppy mill abuse. This report will be an invaluable tool in helping us push for change to animal welfare laws by exposing and closing markets for puppy mill operators.
A quick word about us:
The Canadian Federation of Humane Societies (CFHS) is the only national voice of Canadian animal welfare. We represent humane societies and SPCAs across the country working to build a humane Canada.
We value your support and ask that you help us today, on Global Giving Bonus Day, to achieve matching funds from Global Giving!
All the Best,
Barbara
CEO
