Petland Demo in St. Paul
at 1:00 pm
Join ARC at a peaceful demonstration at the Petland store in St. Paul at 2123 Old Hudson Road, 1:00-3:00pm, ** Note: Park in the St.Paul Youth Services Lot to the north of the Strip Mall. Millions of animals are killed in shelters across the country and yet the Petland chain continues to encourage the selling of yet more animals for profit. The stores in the chain support puppy mills by purchasing their puppies and kittens from large-scale brokers and/or directly from puppy and kitten mill operations throughout the U.S. Responsible breeders do not mass produce puppies and kittens or sell to pet stores. Peaceful store protests have proven successful in other states in educating consumers about inhumane breeding. If you can bring your own sign, please do. Some signs will be available there.
