Join the incredible cast from our new short film, "Save Ralph," Taika Waititi, Ricky Gervais, Zac Efron, Olivia Munn, Tricia Helfer, and Pom Klementieff in taking action to end cosmetics cruelty. Around the world, many thousands of animals such as rabbits, guinea pigs and mice suffer needlessly to test products like lipstick and shampoo, even though producing cruelty-free beauty products is safe and simple. It's time to end cosmetics cruelty—forever.

Is your community biased against certain dog breeds?
Humane Voices
03/21/23 • 31 min
Across the country, entire communities ban or restrict dogs because of their breed or perceived breed. The HSUS opposes such public policies as inhumane and ineffective. There is no evidence that breed-specific laws reduce dog bites or attacks on people and they divert resources from more effective animal control and public safety initiatives.
Breed-based policies are based on myths and misinformation, rather than science or credible data. Their impact on dogs, families and animal shelters, however, is heartbreakingly real.
Learn the truth about breed bans and help your community become a place where dogs aren’t judged by their looks, but by their behavior.
