May 17, 2008 The Bark Heard Around the World to be held at the
Yates County Fairgrounds in Penn Yan NY from 10am-4pm . This event is
so timely for upstate NY, as one of the "kennels" in this area was
just granted a permit to increase the size of his operation from 60 to
260 dogs. That just drives us more to do everything possible to get
the word out about this inhumane practice! This is a national event
with speakers coming in from Utah to talk about puppymills. GMPR will
be there with some board of directors and volunteers and set up a
booth with some puppymill survivors. We will have pug items for sale
and talk up our stories of Sonny Ray, maggie and special puppymill
survivors from GMPR..
Saturday, May 31st from 9:00am to
1:00pm at Pet Food Warehouse on Williston Rd. TONS of new pug items
