Chain
Off 2008 • Unchain our World!
Locations Nationwide
Approximately 85 People Joined
Us in their Neighborhoods Around the Country This Year
2008 Campaign Bronze Sponsor
We had Chain
Off participants in 36 states last year, and our
goal again for this year was all 50 states. Unfortunately,
we had a rough year this year, only getting 23 states to join
us, with approximately 85 participants! However, we're still
not complaining...coming from the one woman show the first
year, we're pretty psyched to get this
many people to do something as crazy as chain themselves to
a doghouse...Yes, it may be
crazy, but it's crazier to chain your dog outside for life
and act like it's ok, and it's normal. So next year, get crazy
with US! Take a stand for the chained dogs. We promise you
it will be a day you'll NEVER forget.
See all participants in
the events, below, and where possible we've gotten photos,
videos, articles, and updates on the participants, so please,
make their 8-24 of suffering worthwhile! Read up on their efforts,
look at their photos, and vow to join us next year. We'll be
waiting for you.
