harley the famous chihuahua, puppy mill spokesdog and the 2015 american hero dog winner will be at capitol hill today in washington, d.c. to attend a congressional briefing along with the american humane association. let’s all support him as he fights to put an end to puppy mills once and for all!
it is entirely possible that this one little puppy mill survivor and his family will be able to change the commercial dog breeding industry. puppy mills are the product of a decades-old usda program which ran off the rails and turned into a multi-million dollar industry which treats breeding dogs like trash while peddling their always cute offspring to an unsuspecting american public.
“the time to stop this is now!”
