I think it's up to everyone who loves a dog to make sure that they are being raised with at least some minimum standards. |
Not speaking for yorkiekist (remember, I am not representing anyone here) but there are minimum kennel conditions in place for those breeders who sell to brokers pursuant to the federal Animal Welfare Act and the administrative standards put in place by the USDA pursuant to that law. You can get some information about those here:
2003 CFR Title 9, Volume 1
If they are not being used, that is an enforcement issue.
