HELP SHUT DOWN THE ILLEGAL DOG MEAT TRADE IN THAILAND
Every year, tens of thousands of dogs are snatched from streets and backyards in Thailand and tossed into cramped, filthy cages.
With no food or water and barely enough room to move, many will suffocate, be crushed to death, or die from exposure. Shockingly, their torture has only just begun.
These dogs are on their way to China or Vietnam, where many will be skinned alive or thrown straight into a vat of boiling water, and then butchered for meat.
Will you sign Soi Dog's petition to Thailand's leaders and help save thousands ofdogs from a slow and agonizing death?
With celebrities like Ricky Gervais and Judi Dench spreading the word over 500,000 people have already added their name to this petition -- and we've had some great coverage in international press.
The good news is that it looks like it's all working. Soi Dog learned in recent high level meetings that Thai Government officials are strongly opposed to the dog meat trade and are concerned about the country's international reputation.

How Would You Like To Live In An Airplane Seat?
Millions of pigs live their
entire lives inside gestation crates -- tiny cages about the same size as an
airplane seat! This means that these pigs don't even have the room to turn
around.
Pigs are intelligent animals that lead active social lives when allowed. Forcing them into such confined living spaces is inhumane.
Several companies such as McDonald's and Costco have announced that they will no longer use gestation crates. This is a step forward, but we need to keep fighting for a crate-free future for all pigs.
The Humane Society of the United States needs your help - sign on with us and millions of animal lovers worldwide today and say "NO" to gestation crates for pigs.
