Hi, I’m Chad Rogers for PETA. Starla is incredible. I couldn’t imagine having a
better dog than her. I got Starla about four years ago, and ever since I saw her it was
pretty much love at first sight. She’s more than a pet to me; she’s a member of my family.
Starla has enriched my life so much. I mean, just look at her. She brings me so much happiness.
When I come home from work, and I come in and she’s wagging her tail, it’s the best
feeling in the whole world. I would one-hundred percent, advocate pet adoption to everyone.
I mean to save a dog from getting killed and not knowing what is going to happen to them
is more important than just going to a pet store and buying a dog. There are thousands
and thousands of pets all over the world that need homes, so why not go to a shelter and
get a dog. I mean that’s the best thing that you could possibly do for another dog’s
life. We just got done with America’s Cutest Canine, and Starla won it; so now she is America’s
Cutest Canine. What we are doing with the prize money is we are donating it all to PETA,
because obviously it’s the largest non-profit organization for animal protection. I couldn’t
think of a better cause to donate Starla’s winnings too. The PETA’s doghouse campaign
is really important right now, especially during the winter months. I would definitely
go to the Angels for Animals website, where you can read more about it. In the winter
months, when it is really cold and there are lonely animals left outside, this organization
builds hundreds of dog houses and they deliver them to these lonely dogs to provide shelter,
especially during the cold winter months. Whatever we can do to get involved through
organizations like PETA, and just become active with saving our animals and fighting for the
protection of our animals. It’s so important. For more information, visit Peta.org.
