It does seem like a step in the right direction to me.
I actually spoke out loud when I read this statement: "This has got to stop. This movement of accusing every single breeder having pet stores as puppy mills is absolutely ridiculous," said David Salinas of San Diego Puppy Inc.

What I said out loud was They ARE SO!
I think it also may be true that more BYBs should be stopped but that battle will take an army. I've learned a lot here on YT & one of the things I really believe in is breeders who breed only to have puppies
are indeed BYBs or worse, puppymills. I don't really care how fancy a home the dogs live in, how much "good" they think they're doing by offering pups to people at low costs, or anything else I've heard as
excuses.
