it is just heart breaking as many new pet owners do not know what a puppy mill is - I know i did not  Trust me you start learning alot more when your dog becomes sick though  of what mistakes you made |
The Crufts situation was not because of mill dogs..it was of because of breeders trying to breed to a standard or what they thought were judges desires for certain breeds looks in a dog. At some point people (breeders) forgot the health of the dogs. They almost crippled the german shepard because of this, many dalmations are deaf..but again this is another whole topic and is not due to mills.
