I agree so how do we get this started? It makes the most sense. PETA doesn't
have a separate group for each state, they are all one group who function in
each state. We need an national group with local/state outreaches. One group
that if you can't find a local group they can help you start one or locate
the nearest chapter.
There is so much strength and power in numbers, that is why the AR"S are
effective.
United and fighting, I like that

"Not my fight" "They exempted show animals" "Don't want them to know where I
live"
Apathy, no organization, comes out when it's about to affect them, and most
of all no main organizing body. Or person. Each org. has this ego problem,
and actually don't play nice with other organizations. Each lobbyist speaks
for their own group and sometimes shoots the other feller in the foot. Look
what AKC almost did with AB1634! Or PAWS. TheFarm Bureau just pulled
opposition from a bill in a state because they switched focus to dogs and
cats.
States NEED their own local groups (states federations, etc.). They know
their state or their local area and can work best there. Not every problem
needs a National intervention. BUT an effective National group can umbrella
these groups and guide, support and come to their aid. They can send
professional lobbyists if needed, and watchdog and go proactive.
As I said, I only know of 3 truly national PET groups. NAIA, ADOA and CFA
and then RPOA. I DON"t agree that the small local groups are not needed. But
ORGANIZATION, having an strong umbrella group with a warchest that can move
fast and effectively. YEP, that's needed.
Just suggested that we have a symbol for ALL animal WELFARE groups, from snak
e owners to dairy farmers, from cat owners to horse owners, and of course,
dog owners. A symbol that means that we are united and fighting, then moving
ahead and forward, moving them back into the ditch and we take the high road.
