Hi Mike!
Yeah, I know what HSUS is like, their principles, philosophies, etc... Please don't misunderstand me, if I owned Bowtie it wouldn't happen. I have strong morals that override business principles for myself. Bowtie should take a good look at what they're doing.

I set aside my personal ill-feelings for HSUS when considering Ed's post. I based my thoughts strictly on business ethics under the presumption that the ad wasn't a banning war cry from HSUS. It wasn't easy. I was trying to be fair and look at all aspects.

I do agree that in the long run it could be viewed as if Bowtie were cutting it's own throat with any association with HSUS. My point of view in my first post was basically from the substance of the ad and the substance of the typical HSUS ads in dog/cat mags.

Believe me, far be it from me to be the one taking the side of HSUS. When I read where someone posted that they had a link to the USFWS NOI on their website the last day for submissions this was my response: "I can only hope that some dogs & cats are responsible enough to have their owners neutered.

Have a good one!
