| To sad, Don't know how people can sleep when they treat these loveable furbabies so bad. I have to hope they will get theres at the end. There is still a lot of people that don't have any ideal about puppymills. Thanks for helping spread the word.

| I had a garage sale last weekend and I had 2 puppy carriers and a cage for sale. Some Amish people came buy and wanted to buy them. They said they breed a "few" dogs. I refused to sell to them and stated that my merchandise would not go to puppy mills (they didn't argue or disagree with me). If I was quick to think--I should have asked where they were so I could bust them. I ended up selling them to a mom that had 2 little poodles with her.

| These poor innocent lives are paid for by the rescues. They stand up there and bid right along with the Devils. If the millers discover that the SPR (or any other rescue group) is there they will bid the prices up and then drop out. ALSO, the managementwill put certain dogs that they think should bring a fairly high price in another area and pull them from the auction..And you cannot be seen making deals with a seller in the parking lot or somewhere else. They throw you and yours off the property. |

| That is so horrible! I can't stand the thought of dogs suffering like that. I was going to get to bed early tonight, but followed your link and have been reading it all...unbelievable and how can they keep on...I thought there was laws to protect the innocent. |

| I won't even go read this I just can't handle any more news that this is being let happen all over this country. You would think that as a "civilized" country we would try to wipe this kind of abuse out. But it happens day in and day out. I don't know what I would do if confronted with these type of people. God fearing, yea right. I think that they all belong in H_ _ L!...

And Rini....HOW ARE YOU FEELING ? I hope you're feeling better - I'm pming you to check up on you.... | |

| I would absolutely donate to an organization that will rescue these poor animals from the auctions. Please let us know how we can help. Is SPR just a bichon rescue organization, or does it work to rescue other breeds as well? The woman's account from the auction was awful to read. I cried when I read that the dogs began to wag their tales at the vet's office. Dogs don't need much- just the basic necessities and love. It's beautiful to read that these poor puppies that have been subjected to God knows what opened up with just the slightest showing of care and affection. The rescuers that are able to go to these auctions are angels and should be honored for their actions- it's a lot more than I'd be able to handle. |
