PETA's Angel for Animals - Help a Chained Dog

So you're blaming PETA for actions of others then? And it would not surprise me if they still do dock tails/mulesing - there is plenty of other groups who have filmed evidence of this. Farmers world wide do all sorts of heinous things to livestock.

Also, PETA does both good and bad things, and a lot of their campaigns are totally misunderstood because the majority don't use their brains and just knee jerk. I.e. The pokemon one. Most thought it was an attack on pokemon when it was merely using it to reflect on the real life use of animals for fighting against each other. The masses were of course to dimwitted to understand this.

Do you actually know anything about sheep farming or why their tails are docked? No, didn't think so!

Of course not. PETA gets celebrities on board to campaign for them as if it makes their causes better, and more worthwhile and celebrities never lie so if they support PETA then everything they do must be all sunshine and daisies.

Well, perhaps if they'd had to slaughter entire flocks due to fly strike they'd think twice about listening to the likes of PETA.

Now I'm aware it's USA but I imagine UK can still donate via paypal etc. Also, can we please not have this as a PETA bashing thread. This is just something good they're trying to do for animals that cannot be taken away from their neglectful owners.

"Dogs without protection from the elements outside suffer terribly during the winter. By becoming a PETA "Angels for Animals" sponsor, you can change the life of a dog trapped at the end of a chain or in a tiny pen without adequate shelter from winter's chill. Your sponsorship gift today can provide a sturdy new doghouse to a "backyard dog" struggling to survive long days and nights outside in the cold snow and rain this winter.

PETA builds hundreds of rugged doghouses and delivers them to lonely dogs whose guardians won't relinquish the animals or let them inside. Our doghouses are made to last, so your sponsorship today will provide a dog with shelter from snow, wind, rain, and summer heat for years to come."

Going back to the original OP, which not many people seem to be interested in, my only comment is for people to be aware that if they pay using dollars, Paypal or the card company will take a nice big commission on it.

Personally I would never send money to the USA anyway. We all have our pet hate (pun intended), don't we?
