Puppy Mills

Did anyone see the Oprah show on puppy mills? I knew they were bad, but I didn’t realize how bad! I cried for most of the show. I wish I could save all of those dogs. I can’t believe that it is not illegal to run these puppy mills! Something should be done about this. Many of these dogs do not leave their inappropriately sized crates for their entire lives. If they do get out, they have no idea how to walk on the ground!

We got our sweet dog from a breeder who no longer had any use for her. When we had her checked out she was starting to have some issues because they bred her too young of age and she wasn’t fully developed yet. Now, she’s doing great and is as happy as can be!

The following is a link to a list of Animal Adpotion Resources and how we can avoid puppy mills:
