  "Are dogs pigs?"
"and why does it matter?"
a post from one of our members.

That Vegan Girl: Are dogs pigs? And why does it matter?

Quote:
There is a reason we are charities and that reputable breeders don’t make a profit. It’s because when you treat dogs like dogs, and not like pigs or chickens being fattened for slaughter, there’s no profit to be made. What’s their next suggestion to drive up profits? Eat the old breeding dogs?

Our modern culture has decided dogs are different from livestock. They deserve special consideration. They deserve protection. They deserve better than swine flooring.

Please, take a few minutes right now to share this email with a friend and to tell the Canine Health Board that dogs are not pigs!

Your Partner in Animal Welfare,

Karel I. Minor
Executive Director
