My Mission Deanna Raeke Dog Lover & Proud Pet Parent
Passionate when it comes to my canine companions as well as dogs everywhere, it's my mission to raise awareness of any issues that affect them, from their health, food and nutrition and training to their welfare. Canine advocacy is something that everyone who cares about dogs needs to be aware of and we all need to share that and raise our voice for those who cannot speak for themselves.
Andrea Rosebrock Andrea has come onboard FTLTD to help out by contributing some stories and following-up with her "Justice Round-Up" series.

These companies need to take responsibility for their products! If they actually made their own products themselves, they [...]

With all the hundreds of petfood recalls, you know there are thousands and thousands of pets affected by this but for some reason the FDA continues to report only “16 confirmed deaths.”
