Now that you saw that video ...there are way way worse - this is a good site to really learn about Mills - http://www.prisonersofgreed.org/

it's horrible and the pictures will make you cry - BUT this is what Millions of dogs live like EVERY DAY. The puppies get brokered and loaded onto Big 18 wheeler trucks - shipped cross country to Pet Stores - Evil Petland is the biggest customer of Puppy Mills/Hunte Corp.

I don't want to make you sad - but the more people that get outraged - the better for the dogs in the long run.....Tell ALL your friends about this and thank you for sharing....When I first learned about Mills - I think I was crying on and off for a week - I had NO idea either.

and Thanks Cindy....I always appreciate your comments - I really do talk about it with people and write letters still - one day someone will have the power to stop the Cruelty to animals America is responsible for. Every State needs to take charge of their laws and end this awful business.

and Chloes Mom - good for you on your little Beauty !!
After I read your first post I went to the PET store here just to ask a few questions. I talked to the owner and I asked him where he gets his puppies from and he said that he and his brothers breed 2 breeds each at a kennel. He has a lot of different breeds and he invited me to come to their facilities. I was feeling alright about him because the way he explained it was that he was running a family owned business and the reason why they went into this business was to stop people from purchasing puppies from places that get their pets from puppymills. As I was leaving, a small voice whispered in my ear and said...Go and LOOK at the puppies he had for sale. So I did and when I went to the back where the puppies were.....It was HORRIBLE. Not nearly as horrible as the video, but there was feces in the glass cages that they were in and they just didn't look like they were being kept up. I then went back to him and I told him Point Blank that I was going to write my congressman. I am on a first name basis with our mayor, so maybe I should start with him. After seeing that video, anyone in their right minds would do any and everything they could to stop this insanity.
