I will have to read the article. To be honest, I don't always keep current because the stories are so difficult to read.
From this mill, it looked like many of the dogs were not puppies. Were they selling adult dogs? I thought puppy mills only kept adults for breeding. Wouldn't they at least keep the breeding dogs reasonably healthy?

Or if you read this thread http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...ll-raided.html about the huge mill busts in Washington state, you will see that this one family had several homes they were breeding dogs in - puppy mills, but then they had one beautiful home where they sold all the pups from & made it look really nice and like a small time operation - that thread is so interesting, because a number of people who bought from these people have come on & commented about their dogs and their experience with these horrid people |
