Earlier in the thread, Nancy alluded to puppy mill lobbyists. I stated I could find no information about them and no one posted anything concrete about them. I found this to be an interesting site
Puppy Mills & Dog Auctions On this site, you can click to find out about the Wisconsin Professional Pet Breeders Association, which does seem to be a puppy mill lobby group. There's also a place to click on about USDA inspectors, among other things. I realize this isn't specifically about Indiana but the issues are very similar state-to-state.
