An advocate for animal rights, Phil Lovin has been working towards preventing cruelty and mistreatment of animals in any form from the past many years. He says that if you want to make a difference in the lives of animals, you can start with small steps like going vegan, buying only cruelty-free products, and if possible, volunteering at a local animal shelter where you may have to do simple tasks like walking dogs, cleaning their water bowls, etc.
Phil Lovin also says that if you see someone abusing an animal either physically or by neglecting them in some way, report it to the local animal control. Apart from that, try to spread as much awareness about animal welfare as you can. Also, set a good example for your kids by treating animals with love and compassion. By doing so, you can make sure that they grow up to become an advocate for animals.
