Peta's latest disgusting move is to place an ad in the August issue of Dog Fancy: "Just bought a brand-new purebred puppy? Welcome him or her into your home with a free gift bag! Call us today at 1-866-834-6061 to claim your bag and hear about our products" This 'free gift bag' was actually a body bag, because the new puppy you just purchased means one in a shelter will not be adopted. Dog Fancy has responded: To whom it may concern, This is our official reponse from our company, Thank you for contacting me about the fraudulent classified ad in the August issue of DOG FANCY. DOG FANCY does not knowingly accept advertising from PETA and does not agree with its extremist views. Unfortunately, PETA resorted to guerilla tactics by placing an ad in DOG FANCY under a pseudonym to deceive readers with a free gift bag offer, opting to use shock tactics to try to get its message heard. DOG FANCY promotes responsible dog ownership, including the responsible breeding and sale of purebred dogs. This is the first time in many, many years that PETA has succeeded in slipping past our screening measures, and we accept responsibility for the failure to catch this ad before going to press. We apologize to all who have been offended by PETA¢s offensive and misleading stunt, and will continue to refine the systems in place to prevent our readers and advertisers from being exposed to such distasteful hoaxes. We appreciate your business, and hope you will continue to work with us Joe Medina Senior Sales rep for Dog Fancy, Dog World, Dogs for Kids magazines ~Cindy
