Me, just like some of the YT memebers here didn't know/had no idea/never heard of puppy mills before we got Oscar our first yorkie. We even bought him @ Petland!!! Once again I didn't know anything about puppy mills.
My Oscarito was momma's boy, he was my life, but one time something happened to his neck that he couldn't stretch it. We ended up in the ER not once, but several times in his short life.
Unfortunately, my baby passed away when he was two years and nine months old.
Grief is what brought me to YT just to learn where my baby had come from.
Chiki our Chihuahua is a rescue so are our two cats. We got Jerome our yorkie froom somebody who had gotten him from somebody who got him from a breeder. I contacted the breeder. For what I talked to her( I contacted her since I had Jerome's original papers) sounded like she is a responsible breeder, and was pretty dissapointed that Jerome had been to two households in less than 2 months before we got him. Jerome's b-day is coming up in March. He will be 3 years old and we are his forever home.
Sorry, I got sidetrack, but the point is that puppy mills not oly hurt the animals they sell, but the new owners of those dogs.
