Also this! This is why I end up doing crazy transports to get dogs out of kill shelters in far-flung places like Georgia and Texas.

It does seem Groundhogs Dayish from what everyone has been saying.

THIS IS THE WORST.

I actually kind of like Melania’s outfit? It’s definitely not to Michelle Obama’s level of style, but it’s kind of cute in a traditional first lady kind of way.

Haha I saw that too. And then some genius was like, they must not be very good jobs if you don’t get paid vacation.

The one and only time I went to DC was about 3 years ago and traffic was a CLUSTER at basically all times of the day. HA.

Agreed - I have fostered and volunteered, driven rescue transports, and volunteered on lost dog task forces for many years now and can’t remember a single person in any of those groups that had any time for PETA and their nonsense - any number of rescues here in Colorado would be happy to take in the animals that PETA…

That they did - Her name was Maya and they kidnapped her from her family’s porch. The family figured it out from security cam footage, and PETA eventually admitted it (after months of denying it), saying it was a mistake. Security footage does not back that up, they lured that dog away from her house on purpose.

And now I’m fighting back tears.

Aw, I tried - IMO you should be out of the greys!

I suppose that’s an over generalization on my part, but among the community of animal rescuers I know, which is pretty large, I don’t actually know anyone that supports PETA at this point. I think the turning point for most of us was seeing the reports on how many animals they kill every year, and then the story of…

Sending lots of get better soon vibes to old pupper!!!

Hi there!

Yea, I hate that argument, it is such crap. Colorado, where I live, has a really high rate of no kill communities, and we also don’t have a proportionally high rate of hoarding cases.

Oh your dog will live forever. Mine too. Science will catch up.

In October of 2014, they stole a dog off of a family’s front porch and euthanized her the same day (along with I believe 2 kittens and 2 other dogs). After denying they did it and being confronted with video evidence to the contrary, they eventually claimed it was a mistake. Id say read the below but honestly it’s…

The Art of Racing in the Rain made me cry SO HARD.

Yep - My husband and I foster dogs and cats for a local animal rescue and have 2 dogs and 2 cats of our own. Fuck PETA. Anyone who really cares about animal welfare knows they are rank hypocrites and have an atrociously high kill rate at their “shelters” among other issues. Like when they kidnapped a dog from her home…

Yea, that makes me think I can’t handle it, one of those moments was too much for me.

I’m not familiar with Edge of Tomorrow either! But in reading the film synopsis on the internet, I’m gonna go with “Kind of?”
