MEDIA ALERT: Anti-Fur Demonstrations Against Kardashian Owned DASH Stores


LOS ANGELES, CA --(Marketwire - April 13, 2012) -

WHAT:  

Last Chance for Animals (LCA), a national, non-profit animal rights organization, to hold simultaneous anti-fur demonstrations against Kardashian owned DASH stores in Calabasas, CA, Miami, FL and Manhattan, NY. LCA and over 150,000 supporters are urging retailers to Make Compassion the Fashion by getting stores who have sold fur in the past to pledge not to sell fur in the future.

WHERE/WHEN:  

Saturday, April 14, 2012
Noon - 2:00 PM PDT and 3:00 - 5:00 PM, EDT
DASH retail stores located at:

Calabasas, CA
4774 Park Granada, #5
Calabasas, CA 91302

Manhattan-SoHo
119 Spring St
Manhattan, NY 10012

Miami, FL
815 Washington Ave
Miami Beach, FL 33139

WHY:  

LCA contacted the Kardashian family asking them to make an official statement that DASH stores do not sell fur items. DASH has sold fur items as recently as February 2012. DASH owners (Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, and Kris Jenner) refuse to officially state their stores do not and will not sell fur. Khloe regularly condemns fur but Kim regularly wears it.

LCA is asking for a public statement from the Kardashians that DASH stores do not and will not sell fur.

Over 85% of animals used for fur are raised on fur farms. Like this fox, they spend their short lives in wire cages, exposed to the elements, are killed in horrific ways while fully conscious and are even skinned alive.
