Before you get upset with me think about it this way.......if the millers get even $50 from a rescue to buy their unwanted puppies/dogs then have succeeded in making money off the back of that poor dog one final time. There are dogs dying in shelters that could be in the rescues that are paying millers for their unwanted dogs.  |
did either of those say anything about purchasing from a mill? i didn't see anything but i could have overlooked it. i'd be fine if the mill relenquished the dog to the rescues, but i'm with you on not wanting to support a rescue that "buys" the dogs back from the mills
let me know which one red flagged you.
