Pols bring pet pooches to Albany for Animal Advocacy Day
Peanut goes to Albany!
Peanut, a Chihuahua owned by Assemblywoman Nicole Malliotakis, was one of several pets brought to the State Capitol by their owners on Wednesday to illustrate the call for stricter laws to prevent animal cruelty.
It was all part of the Fourth Annual Animal Advocacy Day in Albany, an event that brought lawmakers, their pets, animal advocacy groups, and law enforcement officials together to discuss ways to protect their four-legged friends.
