| Oprah Puppy Mill Show??? I watched the show. I think it will help the topic of puppy mill. It's a step in the correct direction. I think they could have shown just alittle more of the evil of the puppy mills. Really get inside of the worst ones(THE GIANTS) I know it's very hard to watch. But THE FACTS NEED TO BE SHOWN. I think- OPRAH show was alittle to gentle. I hope, she does follow up... Put a watcher advisory before the show. They need to show the aweful GUTS of this industry. Do not pamper the viewers. Let the truth be shown.... WE NEED STOP IT. But at the same token --there is good small home breeders!! We do not want to shut down the true good people. You will always have someone wanting that SPECIAL PUREBREED PUPPY. |

| I think this show touched all of us...of course there's so much more to be known, shown & told but she only has an hour . Maybe she could make this a part 1 and do a follow up show on some of thlem, meanwhile, assist in helping shut some of those puppy mills down!!! All in all, I thought it was a good show! Very sad but true!

| I'm so glad Oprah finally did a show on puppymills. I have been wondering for the longest time why she has never done it before. She has a lot of viewers and can get the word out better than anyone I know. I am hoping she will do followups too. Oprah mentioned that any dogs she gets in the future will be rescued. That is awesome! Way to go Oprah!

| I think she did a great job to help educate. So reaches so many people and if it starts people to think and especially feel more for animals it is a step in the right direction. I was in tears and personally made a donation to a non-kill shelter to help!
