and innocent dog owners will no doubt suffer the consequences because of the WWE’s irresponsible marketing tactics.

“We ask that World Wrestling Entertainment immediately stop selling inflammatory John Cena Tshirts”, said Ms. Garnett in the letter directed to WWE chief, Vince McMahon, and SVP of Communications, Gary Davis.

Rottweilers and their owners have been stigmatized to the point to where even therapy and service dogs are discriminated against.  Earlier this year, a Sears store manager demanded that a woman in a wheelchair with a Rottweiler service dog  leave the store.  She and her husband called to police in order to protect her right to access with her service dog.

Incidents of physical violence and verbal assaults against Rottweilers and their owners are on the rise.   Also of prime concern is the loss of insurance coverage and housing, which results in the needless euthanization of thousands of Rottwielers each year.

“We are asking our club members and every dog lover in the country for help in stopping the sale of this biased Tshirt and to help save innocent dogs”, said Ms. Garnett.

Dog lovers can help by contacting World Wrestling Entertainment, JC Penny and Kohl’s and ask them to pull the John Cena Rottweiler shirt.
