Lancaster County is the puppymill capital of the East. Unfortunately the Amish look at dogs the same as they do cattle, so they don't see any harm in puppy mills. I live in South Jersey which is right outside of Philadelphia and there have been many many exposes on the puppymills in Lancaster county PA. Governor Rendell has tried to pass legislation to regulate these places but they do exist. Check the pet for sale section any day in the Philadelphia Inquire or the Philadelphia Daily News and you will see 717 (area code for Lancaster County) dogs for sale.
