Both of my babies came from mills. Chip we got from a broker who came from an amish puppy mill. I researched his "breeder" and back in July I believe, he shot all but 10 of his dogs because some authority person told him to take all of his dogs to the vet. Chip was not in good shape when we brought him home and almost died about 4 times in his first year of life. Smokey came from a mill in southern VA, but we got him through rescue, so I don't know anyelse but what I was told. He has been in top health though except for anxiety. Both of my boys are almost 2.
It's awful that people do that. I mean, if you want a business to make money, do something else, but don't use poor, innocent creatures. Puppy mill owners are HEARTLESS. They'll get theirs in the end.
