The USDA is the department of agriculture and covers rules concerning livestock. Any breeder that is licensed with them is a very large-scale breeder and must follow minimum requirements as set forth regarding the conditions of livestock. This is the very essence of a puppy mill breeder. I would never buy a dog from a breeder who was USDA liscensed.
