Featured  Urgent: The Iditarod is set to start in two weeks. Yet in just the last five years, dogs forced to run in this race have died from heart attacks, internal bleeding, choking on their own vomit, and being buried alive in snow. The Coca-Cola Company, Jack Daniel's, Wells Fargo, and many other companies have ended their affiliation with this cruel event. Tell beverage company The Odom Corporation and some of the other remaining sponsors to cut ties with the deadly race immediately.  Good news! British fashion icon and designer Victoria Beckham has pledged to stop using exotic skins in her collections. Keep the pressure on other companies to do the same by asking LVMH to shed exotic skins from Louis Vuitton and all its other brands today.  We're working to raise enough money to stock our mobile clinics so that we can assist more cats and dogs this Spay Day.  See how people reacted to a man in a suit and tie wearing a diaper and riding a tricycle in PETA U.K.'s outrageous and ridiculous hidden camera video.  Oscar winner and loving dog guardian Casey Affleck tells the story of a dog named Jelly who was experimented on in a Texas A&M University laboratory where dogs are bred to have canine muscular dystrophy. The animals used in these cruel experiments often die within a year. Tell the school's top donors to rethink their support of a university that purposely breeds dogs to have a disease that ravages their bodies.  Danone—the parent company of Dannon yogurt and Horizon Organic milk—still allows farmers in its supply chain to disbud calves, using a hot iron to burn horn-producing tissue off a calf's head.  After months of discussion, Herbal Essences has joined PETA's list of companies and brands that don't test on animals! Share this news with everyone you know, and browse other cruelty-free brands in our Beauty Without Bunnies database.
