It's very VERY hard not to want to save them but, in reality, people are keeping them in business by buying. It's all about profit.
I'm glad you mentioned auctions. That's another disgusting practice that needs to stop. It's like our country turns a blind eye to the plight of all these poor animals. Even on the news, when they have the tv adoptions, there is hardly any mention about the thousands being abused/neglected LEGALLY in Mills all over the country.
Our laws just SUCK. |
All of the things that I have learned are from sitting back and listening and adsorbing what is being written and said about all of these issues. It
is hard to sit back and not take them all in but there are so many that are dying we cannot possibly save them all. It is just a very sad situation with not enough education being done or the education falling upon deaf ears. I have said it a millions time~if the general public knew what was really going on and took the time to educate themselves they would be holding flaming touches in front of every pet shop, puppymill and mill auction in this country. Sadly it is much easier to turn your head and continue to shop pet shops and bybers to get a quick puppy fix. If people knew that dogs were stuffed into gas chambers and gassed to death they would be horrified! If they knew "how" millers PTS their unwanted dog they would be speechless. If people knew that sick puppies are routinely tossed into the trash bins at pet shops they would NEVER step foot inside a pet shop. But unfortunetly, there are so many that are unwilling to accept this as reality in the puppy "business".
