ALF, PETA, ADL, Know Your Acronyms!
by Roberta Lee, DD., PhD., ND. TheDogPlace Science Editor
Do you know your ACRONYMS? Now don’t get excited, it is not the latest dog related disorder, but it is just as important for you to know about. I know you want your energy and monies to go for the well being of ALL animals, especially dogs, and to go where you THINK it is going.
Acronym are the letters some organizations use to identify themselves. For example, PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals), ALF (Animal Liberation Front), ADL (Animal Defense League). These are definitely acronyms that you should become familiar with. They are wolves in sheep’s clothing.
When a person puts on a mask to hide their identity it is easy to tell that the mask is there. Unfortunately the same isn’t true of organizations with nefarious plans.
The organizations named above are not the mild mannered groups with the welfare of your pet in mind. Behind the smooze and gush, the horrible pictures of animal abuse lies a more hideous plot than you can imagine. Please see “ALF & ELF, The Future Is Here,” on this site.
I know that two years ago I would have belonged to at least two of the above named organizations. I would have listened to their hype, and of course we all know that humans are not taking the welfare of animals seriously, so I would have looked at the pictures that they send you and I would have opened my check book and sent them the much needed money they are asking for, never realizing they are not what they seem to be.
This website is dedicated to bringing you the TRUTH. And that is not an acronym for anything, except telling it the way it is in the sometimes not so wonderful world of dogs.
The three organizations above are all one organization, which has at its center the idea that they are God and they want to change life as we know it on this planet. What they are proposing would make a good science fiction movie but they are serious about what they want to do.
Do research into the organizations that are asking for money to support the welfare and care of animals before you support them. It is true that there are some very good groups that are doing more than their share in helping the plight of abused and neglected animals, but be sure that is what you are contributing to before you write the check, not after.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: “Money wisely spent brings wise results.”
