Aerialist Kyla Duffy Puts Spotlight on Puppy Mills

by Carrie Boyko

"Up for Pups" Spotlights Puppy Mill Issues

Well, the dogs beat me to it on this topic, but I'm going to one-up them with this great video taken at the recent Blogpaws conference for pet bloggers. Avid activist Kyla Duffy publishes books to put the spotlight on the puppy mill industry. Her stories from rescues tell the tale quite effectively. Yet, for Kyla, this was not enough. Watch the video and then read on.

She's taking to the road with this performance entitled "Up for Pups", set to a highly emotional video presentation, designed to educate the public about puppy mills and the problems within the pet breeding industry. This is one woman on a mission.

While the video presentation on the screen behind her is impossible to follow in this version, her performance is emotion-packed and heartwarming.

Kyla invites those of you who have equally heartwarming rescue dog stories to share your story. You can submit them for publication at her website, Happy Tails Books, where you will find complete instructions. Deadlines are approaching, so if you are interested, I encourage you to check it out soon. Let us know if your pup is published; how cool would that be?!!!
