The Truth About
"Free to a Good Home"

Our friend, Michelle Crean from Animal Aid of sw MI (southwest Michigan), has put together a very informative page directed to people who think "free to a good home" is the way to go for disposing of their pets. It also includes a sample letter that you can send to your local paper to help educate the public about related problems, and info on how to contact your legislators to pass legislation that will get rid of "class B" animal dealers.

The link is worth including in your educational arsenal and Animal Aid encourages everyone to use it:
