Look, I'm sure the dogs are being mistreated and that's terrible and great that someone is speaking up for them. But I can't help thinking, you have this huge platform and there are HUMANS suffering all over the world. Hey LVP, there are probably people suffering within 20 miles of your house! And your passion issue is dogs.
First off, I'm sure Lisa and Ken do donate to "human" causes; we've seen them do so on the show, we've seen them volunteer, etc. So it doesn't have to be all or nothing.
That being said,
humans are not more important than animals; we humans believe that human life is the most important life, but that's not objectively so. Humans have more agency and can advocate for themselves; animals cannot. Animals cannot organize and stop animal cruelty. So it's important for humans to work to protect animals, especially from other humans!
Plants lived on this planted longer than humans. So has dirt. Is that the standard of ranking the importance of life? We own pets. We love them. If we had to choose between saving one of our pets or a stranger who was human we'd save the stranger. If you wouldn't, you're missing a little something upstairs.
Finally, it's Lisa and Ken's money/time/energy, and they can do with it what they like.
