I just wanted to share with you guys… I have two doggies that mean the world to me! I love them as if they were my own children, and know they have feelings just as humans do. I stumbled upon this today and will try to do my best to change our lifestyle to help these poor animals out.
I know that I myself, alone, may not be able to do much, but I can spread the word to 100 people, and if those 100 spread the word to 100 more people, and so on, people can get the word out. With the internet we have today we can easily spread the word in 5 minutes. Facebook, twitter, your own blog are tools you can use to spread the word!
Just copy and paste this into a note on facebook, or your own blog!!
Here it is:
Many manufacturers of personal care and household items still test their products on animals, despite the growing number of alternative methods for evaluating product safety. The following list contains all such companies known and their associated brand names. In addition, it is updated as new information is made available to us. We cannot fully guarantee its accuracy, so please use the list accordingly–and do let us know if you can offer any further updates. You may wish to print out the list and take it along next time you go shopping! Please also note that all over-the-counter medicines and/or their ingredients are extensively tested on animals, as currently required by the FDA.
