Help us raise awareness of puppy factories at the Oscar's Law Puppy Factory Awareness Rally. Similar rallies will occur across Australia. The date of the rally will be coming soon.

Join more than 60 animal welfare organisations on the steps of Parliament to help free dogs from a life of confinement inside puppy factories. The rally starts from 12 noon, with information and food stalls in Treasury Gardens from 11:00am-4pm.

Why rally for puppy factories?

Many people don't realise that over 95% of dogs and puppies in pet shops are estimated to have come from puppy factories or backyard breeders. However the industry refuses to disclose where they obtain their puppies from.

All other products in a pet shop have the supplier’s details available. What do pet shops have to hide? We encourage you to take the Pet Shop Challenge, and ask your local pet shop where they source their puppies from.

What will happen at the rally?

Join thousands of Australians who are taking an active stance against puppy factories. This is your opportunity to show your support and make it perfectly clear that the majority of Australians support animal welfare and want an end to puppy factories. On the day, you'll have the opportunity to:

Engage with various information and food stall, held after the rally at nearby Treasury Gardens.
Come and meet Victoria's leading dog rescue and animal welfare groups and learn more about how you can help stop this legalised cruelty.
Hear from the RSPCA's chief veterinarian, Dr Andrew Byrne.
Join the 100,000 Australians who have pledged their support to close puppy factories.
Join others at this family-friendly event, and meet like-minded people who care about animal welfare.
