Hartz Victims - Gauge Update!
We recieved an email from Gauge's parents thanking us for profiling Gauge on our blog and letting people know about how Hartz hurts. In June, it had been 11 months since Gauge was hurt by Hartz. Her parents report that while she is happy and has adjusted to her scars she still has some neurological effects.

In Case You Missed Sunday's Meeting
We were extremely happy to be a part of the public meeting on Sunday. A big thank you to our friend, Nicole, who made it all happen! The event was very well attended event and was eye-opening for the attendees. Many people visited our information table and we gave out a bunch of Boycott Monster Pets flyers and other information.
In case you weren't able to attend Sunday's meeting, here are some ways you can take action to help Pennsylvania's dogs from the PA Dog Law Action site:
While our group supports any positive changes on behalf of dogs in puppy mills, we believe these changes are still not enough. Puppy mills should be shut down all together. Until that happens by law, consumers need to work towards it by boycotting stores and breeders that sell puppies.
In case you weren't able to attend Sunday's meeting, here are some ways you can take action to help Pennsylvania's dogs from the PA Dog Law Action site:

- Not sure who your legislator is? Visit their website: use the member search option in the top right corner to find your legislator or call us at: 717-772-2854 and we'll help you find out.
- Write a letter to the editor. Write a letter to the editor of your local paper, telling them you support the overhaul of Pennsylvania's Dog Law. Find a local paper

Animal Welfare Groups Participating:
- Reach Out for Animal Rights, an advocacy group working to educate the public on animal mills and spreading the word about the pet store-puppy mill connection.
