I have seen them many times on Animal Planet. They are horrible! Your right
as long as there are puppy mills there will be pet stores. Let me ask why
everyone is after the pet store? Why not got after the supplier? If the law
would take animal abuse more seriously these mills would be closed! Closing
a pet store will not stop the trafficing of pets. Closing the suppliers will.
The problem as I see it is making our law enforcement agencies see this
problem as just that "a problem and abuse". Every animal comes in with an
invoice and location of where it came from. If a pet store is reported for
cruelty to animals and the law goes there they should ask for invoices showing where the animals came from and go after them! If dog fighting is
against the law why are puppy mills allowed! It's abuse by humans as well
and money making.
