Stop Online Puppy Mills and BISSELL Pet Foundation two powerful forces in animal welfare, both sister-founded organizations working to protect dogs and promote responsible pet ownership.
Stop Online Puppy Mills, founded by Janie Jenkins, is a leading puppy mill education and advocacy nonprofit, working to expose puppy mills and the cruelty of high-volume commercial dog breeders and the deceptive online platforms that support them.
BISSELL Pet Foundation, founded by Cathy Bissell, is dedicated to helping shelter animals and the shelters that care for them through adoption support, spay/neuter programs, and emergency relief.
Stop Online Puppy Mills is a proud member of BISSELL Pet Foundation’s, Partners for Pets Program. Together, these two organizations are tackling the problem from both ends—rescuing animals in need and preventing future suffering by reducing demand for puppy mill dogs.
Janie and Cathy use their shared passion for animals to transform consumer awareness and drive meaningful change to protect dogs and build a more compassionate world for all dogs. Below, Cathy interviews Janie on the subject of puppy mills.
