It is horrifying and heartbreaking to read those stories and look at those pictures.
This is an issue that does not get the attention and action that is needed and deserved. Did you know in PA it is acceptable to use the dead puppies as fertilizer? They can just dump the bodies in the fields never knowing how they died and they rot. What ever was in them, leachs into the soil and the crops. The crops are then sold to you and I. Honestly, this is the only thing that I have read that i could see making the difference. Mainly b/c there are too many people that just don't care enough b/c they are "just dogs". it is the same thing that is going on right now with the pet food. It's "just dog food". But imagine if that was people food that was being recalled? Now....SOMETHING would be done. Just like if people start to realize that puppy mills in PA are ALLOWED by LAW to use sick dead puppies as fertilizer for HUMAN FOOD, that, *might* do the trick. Maybe get the ball rolling.
It is sad. It is heartbreaking. It wrenches your heart to see and hear it. I would love to see Hunte taken down. I think that would be a huge help.
All you can do is keep spreading the word. Keep telling people about puppy mills and why not to buy from pet stores. Little by little. One more person who knows...and keep hoping. |
