PETA: ‘Georgia Athletics must retire Uga immediately’

Controversial ‘animal rights’ organization PETA recently caused a stir within the UGA community when it called on the school to retire its long-tenured live mascot: Uga the dog.

The current instillment of the beloved canine, Uga X, was featured prominently throughout CBS’ broadcast of the Dawgs’ win over Texas A&M, evading the rain from the comfort of his quite luxurious doghouse.

However, this didn’t stop the activist group from calling out the team on Twitter.

Needless to say, PETA’s claims did not sit well with Dawg Nation.

Hopefully, PETA learns its lesson and understands that Uga is actually treated quite well.
