Thanks for the posting and making people aware!!!!
I hope your little one is doing fine. I know you will be a good mommy.

I wanted to thank all who responded and all who took the time to post negetive reviews on that site about this puppy mill. I am sorry I lost my temper at the one poster but in my defense I feel that instead of critisizing we should be trying to do all we can to help close down these horrible places. Once again thank you everyone.

LilMissy,Very good post!

omichka, I know you are very earnest and devoted to your quest to conquer all the puppy mills & BYBs..No one on here would deny that, or say you are uneducated... and we all feel basically the same way about it as you do.... but your tact and anger can really turn people off...It makes me very tense to read a thread that I know you are posting in.....Everyone is entitled to their own veiw-point even if it is not specifically what you believe to be right.

Just wanted to say I am sorry for losing my cool. But it seems like every post I see Omak post in she is putting people down. She may be a very nice person but there are those of us who feel bad for buying from what we later found out was a puppy mill now we just want to see them stopped and do all we know to do. Thanks so much to all the rest of you who responded and to those who posted negitive reviews on the other site.

Thanks for making us aware of the puppy mill. Maybe admin. would let us have a place that we can post when we find a puppy mill.

She sells 5 other breeds and has over 200 dogs in 3 teeny little buildings I dont know how she gets by with it

I bet the consumer reports newsperson at your local news station would be mighty interested in this. I know those stories always break my heart. It's a good way to try to get the local community involved in shutting them down.

I did write a letter to the editor of our newspaper but unfortunately they didn't print it. I will see what I can do about the news broadcasts hadnt thought about that. Thank you.

most breeders from that website are puppy mills/at least backyard breeders. This is FACT. Period. Just STOP buying online and from that website and DO NOT SUPPORT GREEDY INDUSTRY and animal cruelty.

Please find the topic "the true about puppy trade industry" and please just read it. Thank you

Good Post. Elaine

[B] I didn't read all of Omak's posts but the post I did read I do think he or she is trying to make a difference. It gets very frustrating when you are trying to educate and shut these places down. I know that sometimes I can be friendlier when educating or posting but as I said it is very frustrating, especially when you see how these dogs are living and there is not much you can do for them but educate people to stay away from these places. My first Yorkie came from a similiar place - not quite as large but just as filthy. Like you I didn't really know anything about mill ect. We had him ten years before losing him to cancer. He's the reason I got so involved with rescue and educating and trying to put these places out of business. You too can make a difference by doing what you are doing and sharing your story. Also, by getting involved and learning all you can about places like these and educating others to prevent them from making the same mistake. I wish you well with your pup. Elaine

I believe petfinder will stop listing puppies from sellers if they are shown to be puppy mills. Does puppyfind have any option like this?

To the OP, thank you for posting about this puppymill breeder. It is good to pass the word about bad breeders. It does help to let people be aware of any bad breeder and puppy mills.

I think most of us need to remember that not everybody is on the computer all the time, they may only get online when they visit their local library. They may be searching for a pet and of course these online places often come up in their searches.

Not everyone is as passionate about dogs as most of us are. Getting the word out is key and hopefully for every post made about a puppymill will stop at least one person from buying from one.

I hope your puppy will bring you many years of joy.

Just wanted to say to omichka I read another post and saw that you had said you to had gotten your furbaby from a puppy mill and would never do so again so wanted to say maybe if you would state that first before giving all the info on puppymills we wouldnt feel like we were being talked down to. I am sorry I lost my cool. I just feel so strongly about this now as do you and am also trying to do my part. Sorry for the misunderstanding. Now that I know that you were duped as I was what you said makes more sense to me.

OMG I'm so sorry I clicked Vanna which they call Hanna in her profile.
She is pathetic, dirty, scared and so very sad. Now I have to think of her all night.
I want to cry! Plus she's 3. They must have used her for breeding.
I pray someone rescues her. OMG
I never open sad things up why did I?

Exactly my feeling am sick because I opened the link and looked. I never do either for just that reason. I feel so helpless and wish there was something I could do.
