Many of the Animal Cruelty offenders are actually listed on this site as reputable. It is easy to fool you and so easy to fall in love with a puppy.
Know the tragic "behind the scenes". Even the smaller breeders...who keep a loved pet pregnant her ENTIRE life. They are just puppy machines to them. Do your homework and please, consider a rescue first.
Don't support the cruelty that you are not aware of. Get the knowledge that should be mainstream.
Thanks for your time,

The list goes on...
Just do a "Puppy Mill" or "Backyard Breeder" "pet store violations" search
and see what you've been unaware of. |
I am glad you have found YT. We are big advocates of doing your homework and have thousands of threads on all of this. We also have some very ethical breeders and will never say rescue is the only way to go.
If you have documented proof of a greeder who is a member here please post as much information as you can of what they are doing. We know we have these people here but until someone can post documented evidence of them being a puppymill or keeping their bitches constantly pregnant we really can't do much.
