4. Once again, PETA proves they're all about publicity
Getting a shelter dog rather than going through a breeder would be a fine suggestion. But this goofy animatronic idea is all about getting media coverage.

After all, if getting a dog from a breeder condemns to death "another dog waiting in an animal shelter" doesn't using a robot dog do exactly the same thing?

They set back their own cause with this kind of logic. Seriously, nothing makes me less sympathetic to concerns about animal welfare than when I hear them voiced PETA-style.
