Yes, this is absolutely a puppy mill. Just because a facility is seeming clean, doesn't make it any less a commercial puppy selling operation. If the place were as clean as it appears (probably cleaned right before puppy buyers appeared) you would have been much less likely to have gotten a pup with coccidia...it is transmitted from infected feces, and water.

the way it was set up the puppies had doggy doors to where they could go in and out.. the dogs looked healthy and cared for..all were groomed well..
sorry it took so long to post back. but i have new news my vet called the breeder will not tell me what was said but withen 30 minutes the breeder called and said she is mailing me the money for the puppy.
would this be considered a puppy mill? i dont know much about the breeding and such just what i seen online the last few days..all my animals have been given to me as rescues she was the only dog i have ever purchased. |
