SHARK created the Beagle Salvation campaign to expose and rectify the plight and suffering of dogs imprisoned at massive breeding facilities. These dogs, no different than the ones we live with in our homes, are fated to be used for experiments - to be tortured and killed.

SHARK has done ground-breaking work with our drones at breeding factories in New York and Virginia, where we filmed overcrowded cages littered and stained with feces and urine. We filmed how these stressful conditions lead to fighting as well as repetitive and erratic behavior. We also captured hours of heart-breaking audio, showing how these dogs howl and cry throughout the day.

We want to shed light on more of these prisons and the cruelty committed within them. We want to create enough public pressure to force changes to not only how these dogs are treated, but to replace dogs with valid, non-animal means of testing which are much more reliable and safer for humans. This is the 21st century, not the dark ages. It’s long past time we started acting like it.

What you have read in this mailer is just a part of what we do; every day we are working on tips, researching, planning campaigns and producing videos exposing animal abuse. We are active 7 days a week, day and night, traveling across our country, fighting to save lives. No one does what SHARK does, but it is incredibly expensive to maintain this level of activism.

There are groups out there that rake in millions every year and spend almost none of it on animals. Instead, they pad their own bank accounts with the hard-earned money of people who only want to help the animals. SHARK’s team of investigators, however, will never get rich from our work and no one comes close to making the six-figure salaries that most high-profile animal groups dole out to their executives. As for myself, I have never taken a penny from SHARK and in fact, have used hundreds of thousands of dollars of my own money, from my retirement fund, to keep SHARK afloat throughout the years. That’s how much I believe in our work.

Those days, however, are over. If SHARK is to continue to score victory after victory for animals, then it will only happen with your help. I ask you to compare what you have read here with any other group and judge for yourself the value of your donations.

As always, the lives we save, are the lives you save.

Sincerely,

Steve Hindi

Constant pursuit of animal abusers is an absolute must. This is a large part of why SHARK is more productive than other groups. We don't sit in offices - we are in the field. Unfortunately, this costs money for fuel, food, lodging, wear and tear on vehicles and equipment. Travel isn't fun when you're chasing animals abusers. It's not fun at all, but it is vital to make positive change.
