mY HUSBUND AND I WATCHED THIS TOGETHER HIS BELIEFS ABOUT
PUPPY MILLS ,BACKYARD BREEDERS are the same as mine.He mentioned
that AKC should limit the reg. per year say maybe 5 litters
per year.per kennel/home that is on the high side for me as I am also a very small breeder.
(show) I like to keep it that way personally as it is hard to keep up with
things if you are doing it right.No one wants the goverment to control
this but really somthing needs to be done.
There is a town out here in Texas called Canton and they have canton days
once a month at this place they sell all kinds of stuff including
puppys and I mean puppys galore. AKC reg.I am sure there is other places out there that is typical thsi is no better than selling in a pet store.

OMG..I have been to the Canton trade days...they actually call that area of the flea market "dog town"...it is AWEFUL! So so sad.. I don't think I could ever stand to go back there knowing all i do now (haven't been there since I was probably in highschool)...I'd probably get arrested...
