I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | There's a sticky at the top of the discussion page as a reminder. I'm recording it, but have to admit, I'm afraid to watch it.

| FINALLY, someone with lots of influence and money is getting on the bandwagon to stop this terrible treatment of dogs. Maybe now our government will step in and do something about it.

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | I see so many of us as the problem. I mean you can close down a puppymill, and two more will pop up. Until people buy from reputable breeders and not pet stores and websites, puppy mills will continue. Many websites are just dog brokers who buy their dogs from puppymills. I see the byb as one step up from a puppymill breeder. Perhaps their dogs aren't as badly mistreated, but so many are still mistreated because the breeder isn't knowledgeable about breeding. When you try to inform others what to look for in a good breeder, many people take offence and say they got their dog from such and such and he has no problems. I see people encouraging others to buy from bad breeders all the time. So I'm anxious to see what Oprah sees as the solution to this horrible mess.

| Finally!!! I have often wondered why she and Ellen, both of whom love dogs so much, have never done a show on mills. You know they get emails...YT members have sent them and I'm sure people involved with rescues must. This is such good news. Hooray for Oprah!!!!
