Jeanie- don't get me wrong. I think outlawing pet stores that sell puppies and kittens is a good first step. But I think it would be too easy for people to get complacent after that and think they've removed the whole puppy mill industry. There have been multiple cities that have banned them, and all it did was create a whole new industry of puppy mill brokers.
As for the fact that AKC won't start making tougher regulations because people will just run to CKC or what ever: Is that REALLY an excuse for them to not do it? Just because someone else has low standards doesn't mean that mine need to be low, too.
