I agree. I hope and pray that people will watch this and be educated. I think this is LONG overdue. I know a lot of people are concerned about how this will affect those "responsible" and "reputable" breeders...but honestly..I think it is a good trade. I think that if this raises awareness and helps the general public to understand what goes on in these terrible places....it is worth every penny that was spent to do this show. and in return, I do believe that it will also help others who are looking for a nice quality puppy, they WILL look for a responsible breeder versus going into a petstore or buying from flea markets and other dog markets.

so yes, it might turn SOME away from buying puppies from breeders all together, but I don't think it will have such a negative effect. I think it will help to open eyes and help people to understand they need to make a responsible decision...wether it be from a shelter or from a breeder.
