This National Dog Day, we remember Loco– the puppy whose suffering sparked change.
In 2001, THLN passed “Loco’s Law,” strengthening the animal cruelty statute from a misdemeanor to a state jail felony for the first time in state history.

🤔 Let’s set the record straight: Petland SELLS puppies… Adoption means giving a second chance to a dog from a shelter or rescue, NOT spending thousands of dollars at a retail store.
Our shelters and rescues still urgently need support. #adoptdontshop #endpuppymills

🚨 HB 3458 didn’t get a House vote, but the Ethical Pet Sales Bill isn’t dead. Chairman Schwertner can still move SB 1652 by voting it out of committee TODAY. Call your Senator and ask them to urge Sen. Schwertner to give SB 1652 a vote in committee! #txlege

My home state has the chance to make a big difference for dogs. They have the chance to stop pet stores from selling cats & dogs from puppy mills, and prioritize shelter pets instead. The Ethical Pet Sales Bill protects animals and promotes adoption. Let’s put rescue first. Vote YES on May 15. @THLNTX
