Does anyone have any info on an organization called Pets Alive. It seems the animals rights front has finally made it here to El Paso, TX. This agenda would basically ban the breeding and selling of dogs and cats in the whole county and it is strategically timed for the middle of the city/county election. No one had any idea what was going on until it hit the front page of the newspaper this morning. http://www.elpasotimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20050422/NEWS/504220356/1001 . Talking to the city and county reps will probably be futile as many of them are at the end of their terms and will not care one way or the other. I am really scared about all this.
