Just caught a quick story on CNN, highlighting the Chihuahua and Chi-mixes that are swamping the Humane Societies, Animal Shelters and Rescues in California. And, all over the Nation. They are hoping the media coverage will attempt to educate the masses and put an end to the Designer Dog Syndrome that has swept our nation. There are thousands of these young and older dogs up for "procurement".

Will you please describe the media coverage you have seen this year on the crisis we are experiencing, so hopefully it will deter some members from breeding, or "procuring" from BYB's?

Also, how about we contact our local media and ask for this type story to be run more often?

Thanks so much, have a great Sunday!

PS: I was hoping we could "star" this Q, so the message continues to spread!
EDIT: WOW! Thank You for the Stars! I was hoping that someone saw a media story about this subject! LOL!
 
Our local news anchors all love animals,too,and frequently run stories on overpopulated animal shelters in need of homes for animals - all kinds of dogs and cats,not just Chihuahuas. One of the weathermen,Dick Goddard,from Cleveland,has been an animal lover all of his life,and he has animals on the set several times a weeks,trying to find homes for them.

So yes,they do many stories about animals in need. And the Chihuahua story- I did read it,and it seems that many people ran out and got Chihuahuas after "Beverly Hills Chihuahua," and are now abandoning them. It's never a good idea to get a dog just because you saw it in a movie,or because someone famous has one.
