*[Enwl-eng] This television program is going to make animal abuse skyrocket

[ENWL]

            While too many dogs in shelters need homes, the BBC is producing 
a new program about how rich you can get from irresponsible puppy breeding

                 Puppy mills or farms are nightmarish places. Mother dogs 
live their entire lives in dirty, cramped cages. They are always in a state 
of pregnancy or being impregnated; afterall, they aren't worth much if they 
aren't producing puppies for their captors to sell. And those poor puppies 
don't have it easy either — they are often inbred, leaving them with 
horrific medical ailments. If they were born healthy, they don't stay that 
way long, as the lack of proper veterinary care, hygiene, nutrition, 
exercise, and love slowly deteriorates their tiny bodies. And things have 
gotten even worse in lockdown; as demand for puppies soared, so did the 
prices they fetch, triggering an uptick in irresponsible, uneducated, or 
uncaring breeders.

                  Now it's a full-blown crisis, and the BBC thinks it's a 
good idea to roll out a new program called Will My Puppies Make Me Rich?, 
which will depict breeders as they try to squeeze every last penny out of 
innocent dogs, treating them as a business tool instead of the emotional, 
intelligent creatures they are. This will undoubtedly lead to a boom of 
breeders who are in it for the money. When it comes to animals, 
profit-chasing leads to exploitation, corner-cutting, and flat out abuse — 
look at current puppy mills, or cruel factory farms, or horse racing, or 
animals in circuses and zoos, or...do we need to go on? Sign the petition 
and demand that they cancel plans for this terrible program and stop the 
animal welfare crisis it will lead to!

                  Thank you,

                  P.S. The BBC thinks telling people to breed their dogs for 
money is a good idea. Sign the petition and tell them it's not.
