Today show recommends Christmas puppies

• Today show recommends Christmas puppies RedyreRottweilers Posted : 12/13/2006 10:26:45 AM PLEASE WRITE!!! During the 9:30 segment on NBC's Today show they had a segment about how to get "bargains" on Christmas gifts and included PUPPIES!! Though they briefly say "make sure the person actually wants a puppy" but then went on to "endorse"  a "designer breed" puppy mill OR you can go to a shelter.   Here is a link to [linkhttp://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/16184684/]http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/16184684/[/link]  Their "list"   Please write and tell them that we are disappointed that they would include puppies as a viable gift and that they would include a puppymill for "mutts" just makes it that much worse [linkhttp://www.mulberryfarm.com/]http://www.mulberryfarm.com[/link]  Mulberry Farm   To email Today, this is the email addy they give: today@nbc.com PLEASE FORWARD LIKE 62 REPLIES 1853 VIEWS LAST POST CYCLEFIEND2000 Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• rwbeagles Posted : 12/13/2006 11:38:42 AM I was debating whether or not to post this here...but I did notice that the Mulberryfarm.com listed is the same one in the profile of a member here, who has posted some helpful advice prior. They would appear to be the proprieter of this establishment.   I cannot say that I agree, at all, with what they do...but I did want to let the rest of our forum know, that they are a forum member. So bear that in mind when responding. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• griffinej5 Posted : 12/13/2006 11:58:22 AM I'm glad I don't watch the Today show, but I did just send them an email. I hope they reconsider that recommendation.  0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• luvmyswissy Posted : 12/13/2006 12:13:29 PM We have a local TV news show that has a weekly segmant with a VET and local shelters who showcase different dogs or cats each week and try to find them a home.  Well they did the same thing, suggested that the dog that day would be a great Christmas gift!  I was shocked, but I guess for them they were thinking if you are thinking of getting one come here first.  Like I said, I was surprised they said that. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
