My first thought was that a lot of those 30 were pregnant and had a couple of babies each. It wouldn't take long in the case of a real mill to get 70 from 30! Glad to hear that isn't the case either!

No need to apologize at all. I can see how it could be confusing. I am just glad it is all straightened out. I really love the rescue I am so proud of everyone in it. I just didnt want anyone thinking bad of IPPRA. I am glad to see so many people that care about the welfare of these dogs, thank you all so much!

I know you know about the ones that went to the shelter and they are still holding them. I think these that we got from the miller are where she(Robin) was getting her pups from that she sold. There were Yorkies, Shih-Tzus, Poms and Chihuahuas we got from there. we couldn't take them all, wish we could have, but we are only so big and so many foster homes. We did however find good rescues for the ones we could not take

Momo....was this the Amish puppy mill that was on the news not long ago?

From what I understand it is "one" place where she was getting them from. They all had the same issues as the ones from Robins trailer. One of the Poms on the transport was having an anixety attack so was taken to another rescuers home, while being groomed it was noticed that part of her ear was missing, well guess what, they found it, it was matted in the hair on her body rotting away. I know disgusting, but very true. This is what this last batch came in like. Poor babies!!
