This is the part that makes the breeders concerned. *highlighted*
Also the legislation that is going on in each state is unreal.
Have you kept up with the legislation.
Right now Texas has some going on too.
we have to be on top of all of this.
We have to be sure that responsible breeders do not just get twisted in this show.
I will be watching it and I pray that it will show the right way a long with the wrong. However with her comment it tends to make you feel, it may not be a good thing.

CHICAGO (AP) - Oprah Winfrey plans to dedicate a show investigating abuses at puppy mills to her cocker spaniel, Sophie, who died last month from kidney failure at the age of 13.
«Sophie gave me 13 years of unconditional love. She was a true love in my life,» Winfrey says on the broadcast, according to
advance remarks from the show released Tuesday by Harpo Productions.
The show _ scheduled to be aired Friday _ features special correspondent Lisa Ling investigating puppy mills, which Ling calls «horrific» and «haunting.
Winfrey says the show is «for anybody anywhere who loves a dog, has ever loved a dog, or just cares about their basic right to humane treatment.
While Sophie was not a product of a puppy mill, and Winfrey's three current dogs were adopted from breeders, Winfrey says in the future she would look to adopt from an animal shelter.
«I
would never, ever adopt another pet now without going to a shelter to do it. I am a changed woman after seeing this show,» she says.
