“Amazon UK is being urged to ban the sale of eijao products as more than six million donkeys are slaughtered every year to produce them.

While Amazon does not directly sell products containing eijao, welfare charity Brooke has found that these products are available from third-party sellers on the site. Eijao is made from donkey hides and used in cosmetics and food in China as a “youth serum” 🙄

The petition calls for Amazon to “consider the devastating effects the trade is having on animals and people globally” and ban the products immediately.”

The amount of owner Surrender emails and phone calls I've gotten over the past two weeks has been astronomical. People are trying to surrender their dogs for… I'm sorry… The most dumb s**t reasons I've ever heard. The most manageable reasons. The most temporary reasons.

We typically don't take owner surrenders from the public which means your only other option is the Shelter. Once your dog enters the shelter, no matter how amazing you think they are before you drop them off there, no matter how great of a chance you think they have once they enter those doors… They arent, and they don't. They're a number in the system Once a dog enters the shelter system they are no more special than the dog who was dumped there 20 minutes before yours was.

Obviously, there are very legitimate reasons why someone may need to rehome their dog but, if only the people who had a legitimate reason were rehoming their dogs, shelters and rescues wouldn't be overwhelmed with perfectly healthy and happy dogs with nowhere to go.

Statistically, there are simply not enough homes for every single dog in need. Please do the world a favor. Stop supporting breeders. They're not the ones that are gonna take your dog when you don't feel like dealing with the them anymore. If you have a fixable problem, figure out a solution. Save up for a trainer, spend more time with your dog. Having a baby isn't an excuse to ditch your dog. Thousands of women every single day
have babies and keep their dogs. Find a place to live that allows dogs. It might not be where you want to live ....but atleast you get to keep your dog.

Having a pet is an honor, it's not a right. And we should be thankful every day for the love and unconditional companionship we get from the dogs and cats in our lives. That being said, please be the person your dog thinks you are and stop trying to dump them on an already overcrowded and overextended shelter system

If you need resources, we can help but we cannot take your dog. We're already full with a bunch of dogs a bunch of other people didn't want anymore.
