Forwarded! ---Permission to cross-post.--- URGENT: Dog Lovers, ranchers, hunters, farmers & all Americans who value freedom, please see my Facebook Notes section. (Available for viewing to "Everyone.") Ask everyone you know in Oklahoma to call Governor Henry TODAY (405) 521-2342 & ask him to veto HSUS-sponsored SB 1712. HSUS is promoting this as a "puppy mill bill" - which means HSUS now defines a "puppy mill" as 11 intact females, including puppies! STOP THE MADNESS. CALL THE GOVERNOR, ask for VETO... (Thurs. 5/6 a.m. update: I just called the Governor's office to ask if he'd vetoed SB 1712, and the charming lady who answered the phone said that he hadn't as of yet. PLEASE flood his office w/ polite calls TODAY. Thanks!) Tina M. Perriguey Protecting those who protect us - in counterterrorism and working the street - our German Shepherd Dog.
