[QUOTE=yorkiepuppie;2956337]i cannot agree more! as pet lovers, we should all strive to help all dogs. i don't understand why anyone would encourage other people to knowingly purchasing from a puppy mill. WHY!?

I don't know of anyone here that is
encouraging anyone to
knowingly purchase from a puppy mill

. In most cases new members will come and post after they have already purchased. In these cases some members here just want to welcome that person and let them know they are here for them. After all, the decision was theirs and they made it. If they want to keep their puppy it's their right and their business. I know of no one on YT who is a puppymill "advocate" . Many people are unaware of the dangers until they come here after the fact. YT
is a good resource for those who have not already purchased to avoid the mills.
