Attention Animal Lovers
A new petition- urging the Obama family to adopt, not buy the dog they will hopefully get once they take residence in the White House. Imagine the message they will send if the first family makes the commitment to adopt and not support cruel and inhumane puppy mills and backyard breeders.
If you're not familiar with the issue I recommend looking into it, your next trip to a pet store will never be the same.
Heres the petition:
