This is a very sad, but I think a very important story. It might not be all about Yorkies, but it happens to them too, and I thought I should share what I found with all of you Yorkie lovers. It's a horrible thing that's going on, and I just wanted to let all of you know that this is really happening out there.   P.S. It might be long, but if you read it let me know what you think |
I'll be happy to post what I think - People ROT ! This story made me cry -
After I got done feeling SICK reading this -I copied parts of this article articles to drill the importance of stopping the Sale of Live Animals in Pet Stores...For those who don't read the article - at least read these parts - it will truly sicken you.
Kind but misguided people want to purchase the
puppy from the pet store to “rescue” it. More
experienced people beg that no one buy the puppy, as
each sale only serves to make pet stores order more
Whippets. The real rescuers know that the breeding stock
that produce pet store puppies live in unspeakably horrid
conditions, and every pet store puppy sale condemns more
breeding stock to that fate. For those who DON'T read this article - THIS is by the author The stench. She couldn’t believe the stench. Nothing in her life
had prepared her for this. Not the worst run city shelters. Not
the filthiest kennels. Nothing. The smell of stale urine and fresh
feces could not begin to compare with what she now faced. Her
eyes smarted. Her nose burned. Her brain tried to process the
odor of death; of dying flesh and dying souls. The stink of
human greed and cruelty permeated the darkest corners of that
room. Every pore of her body was soaking up all of that stench.
She had to go outside.
None of the animals in the room had food or water. There
were multiple dogs in each cage. Only a few had room to stand in their cage; the rest were crammed in crouched positions. There were around two
hundred and fifty dogs in that room.
They had kennel cough, were underweight and malnourished, and had
varying degrees of deformities in their feet and legs from living on wire cage floors and having been deprived of any exercise.
Eyes pleading for release, death, anything. Feet horribly deformed from life on wire grid cage bottoms. Quiet whimpers. Urine and feces from dogs in the upper crates dripping on the dogs below. Occasionally a growl. That inescapable smell.)
This was a truly accurate first hand account of a HORRIBLE DOG AUCTION and everyone should read it. Then you WILL cry
