I thought YT would be the best place to start!
Let me just quickly share my feelings....

I am a BIG fan of (red98vett) and all her efforts of sharing and posting about "How to stop puppy mills". I know that there are many other members that are also in support and also post and I am also on your side as well. Lately, I have been feeling a little down (you all know those feelings). Well, I have decided that I really, really want to help out to animals that are being abused (in all sorts of ways). I have done a little research on the internet, but I am not able to watch a good portion of cruelty things. My personality is one that hinges and CAN NOT forgot, I will think about it every second to the point that it consumes me (which this has al ready started to do) and then it starts to be very destructive mentally. I am not by all means 'turning a blind eye' to animal cruelty by NOT watching, I just know what my limits are from past experiences. I have seen a very few mild to a little more than mild and I am haunted by it right now.

However, I really want to be active in STOPPING this abuse (as far as I can mentally go).

My first plan is to make a monthly donation. I can not afford a lot, but I feel that anything I can give will surly help. Next, I want to write e-mails and letters to our government. Which is why I posted that link above for PAWS.

I hope that I am not intruding or upsetting anyone. I actually feel a little better myself by posting here. I know that I can not personally stop this disgust, by I sure what to donate and dedicate as much of my efforts as possible to these helpless animals. AND I WILL CONTINUE TO HELP WITH THE FIGHT FOR AS LONG AS IT TAKES.

If anyone has more suggestions and advice, I really do appreciate it...

THANKS for letting me share this with you all!!!

Please spread the word...........

The Pet Animal Welfare Statute, PAWS (H.R. 2669/S. 1139), addresses this growing problem. Without PAWS, many puppy mills will continue to escape inspections, and the dogs will continue to live in misery.
Nicole - Here are two threads with even more information for you. Great what you are doing but you do need to be aware that most AKC breeders are against this legislation.
