Hi, I’m Torrey Devito and this is Bo for PETA. He will be 8 in about a month. I found
him almost 2 years ago. He loves to sleep, and he loves to cuddle. So if anybody sits
on the couch, he gets so excited and runs up because that’s his favorite thing—he’s
kind of, a little bit of a lazy dog. They just become part of your family and they become
your best friend. It’s so cheesy, but I saw this bumper sticker and it said, “Who
Rescued Who” and I always joke with my sister about that, about Bo. Because having a pet
in your home makes it so warm and friendly and I think it’s really important that if
you are going to get a dog that you adopt. Fur is a huge issue that I’m really passionate
about and been passionate about for a really long time. I just think it’s so despicable
and disgusting. To kill these animals because of some vain fashion is just so revolting
to me. Even as a kid, I just never could wrap my head around someone doing that. Especially
nowadays, I just feel like we have so much information, and for people to still wear
it? Only truly ignorant people would wear it or have it as throws or blankets or carpets
or whatever—I just think it’s revolting. If you are going to get a pet, go to the shelter,
find an adoption agency, volunteer at shelters, you can follow PETA on Twitter, Facebook.
You can sign the petition you are passionate about…put your name on it.
