Scandal over fur coat made from 42 Alsation Puppy's !

Just going to go up and get the paper now. Anyone else know
about this?

Yeah apparently animals are killed and used for clothing,
shocking isn't it? I heard a rumour that they're put into
our food too but I don't believe it!!!

People only give a damn because puppys are "cute". A leather
coat wouldn't get into the news unless it was made from the
hide of an endangered species...

So would you wear a puppy coat?

No, but only because:
a) It'd be expensive
b) It'd look shite.
c) It'd be too warm for this climate.
d) I'm allergic to dogs :)

I am actually sitting in a leather chair as I type this, I
don't have a problem that a cow was killed so I can have a
nice, hard wearing chair. Admiteddley, the cow was probably
also used for meat, whereas puppy's were just killed.

I just think it's unfair that fur gets a bad rap when
leather (whilst typically using less animals per garment)
gets off nearly scot free.

I do wear a puppy coat, but it is pitbull skin.

sorry last sentence should read:

I just think it's unfair that fur gets a bad rap when
leather (whilst typically using less animals per garment),
which is far more widespread (and I've even seen photographs
of a fur protester wearing what appears to be a leather
jacket...)
gets off nearly scot free.

It's actually only going for £1,000 !

I guess it's just my morals here. I won't eat egs from
battery hens and I'll only eat meat from animals that are
farmed. I don;t wear fur but I will wear keather and sued
cause.. well.... I've already eaten the cow.

There's a picture here aswell of how the animals are
actually treated and it stinks to be honest.

They have labrador rugs and kittn skins too.

I just think it's plain mean >=o(
