I wish they would have mentioned that responsible breeders check their bitches and studs for disease and congenital defects and don't breed ones that have any. Also, they didn't mention how many are being brought in from other countries - like Mexico - and sold out of the trunks of cars!!! Or the trauma that these puppies go through leaving their Mom's too early, traveling from the puppy mill breeders to puppy millers like The Hunte Corp and then on to Petland!!!! I cried and continue to cry for all of these animals... |
those are all very good points. I think barbara walters should do a 2 hour special on puppy mills now. I think there is just too much that needs to be said and one hour is not going to get it across. it needs more time. It is something that needs to be talked about over and over again by several "big" names...not just one.
I think Oprah did a very good job today. I was pleasantly surprised...and am grateful for the show. I am not an Oprah fan. I have MAYBE watched 4 shows my whole life. But felt I needed to watch this one. and am very glad she did so. I just hope it reaches at least a few people...and can save some lives of innocent puppies.
