Maybe i am just confused but it sounds like sensationalizm to me. I think all Puppy Mills should be outlawed and only breeding by the pros allowed but i don't know how it could be enforced with all the BYB's out there. UGH!!
I don't watch Oprah so maybe I am missing something 
All my babies are on home #2 where they will stay forever and ever amen. |
this was not on the Oprah show.
I was just tying this figure into what I had seen on Oprah yesterday.
The figure/fact - I got from a rescue site. I don't look at my house as the second home for the pets I bought from a breeder, and I don't believe this figure is counting those either. As probably 99% of animals leave their breeders homes.
For those of us who love & are committed to a breed I can see how this number might seem overboard, but have you been to a rescue lately?? At our local rescue, it is not uncommon to see noted on their tag, that this animal has been at the shelter before
Too many people seem to think animals are disposable
