Don't Check This Out From The Library!

That's right...I said "Don't check it out," because you should BUY this book. One hundred percent of the proceeds from the sale of "A Rare Breed of Love" goes towards the author's fight against puppy mills. Baby is a puppy mill survivor who spent the first almost ten years of her life in horrific circumstances: crowded, filthy, disease-infested cages that make up breeding camps known as puppy mills. Many internet pet sites and pet stores get their animals from puppy mills where dogs are bred every cycle until they are no longer "useful." Baby lost her leg due to her inactive, malnourished life and her vocal chords were cut so she couldn't cry out for help. Now she and her rescuer, Jana Kohl, are traveling the country telling her story and speaking out against puppy mills. They plan on ending their trip in Washington D.C. to urge legislators to help put an end to puppy mills with the help of the Humane Society of the U.S. You can visit Baby's website to read her story. The book is filled with pictures of Baby with "celebrities" like Barack Obama, James Cromwell, Eric Idle, Lindsay Lohan and more. I couldn't stop crying as I read this book. I was horrified and you should be too. While Baby's story reminds us of the worst part of human nature, she is also a symbol of hope, forgiveness and compassion. Even as the mistreated puppies cower in the corners of their filthy cages, they still yearn for human love. Please consider adoption and stop buying from pet stores and internet sites. And remember to give your own furry friend lots of hugs and sloppy kisses. They deserve it.
