♥ Mama's Boy ♥ Donating Member | I could not even watch it all. This is horrible, I hope the owner does rot in a cage for this and will be treated just as horrible as those poor babies. What goes through a person's mind when they treat animals like this?? Do they think its ok? That animals have no feelings?...this makes me so mad! |

| If I am not mistaken some of these puppies were on the To-day Show this passed week and I have to say that the rescue people did a marvelous job in cleaning and fixing these babies up. God bless them. It always amasses me how stupid and miserable and heartless people can be. |

| Horrifying I too could not watch it to the very end. I had my dh come in to see exactly what a puppy mill is. We both feel that the owners should be treated the same way as these blessed animals were. But fortunately for them OUR CONSTITUTION prevents cruel & unusual punsihment. Surely that state has a law governing to the cruelty to animals. They should be sentenced the the full extent of the law for each and every animal they had. That should keep them locked up for a long time and serve as a deterent to others!

| I want to see the after grooming pictures. I wonder if there's any online somewhere. Poor little sweethearts. What makes me the saddest is the ones who's legs are disfigured and immobile from being bound up in mats for so long, AND the ones that are cage crazy and just run in circles constantly.

| They must've hurt so much. Being cooped up in a tiny space with matts of hair and hardly any water - it's so awful to even bear thinking about. To imagine your furbaby in a puppy-mill - that's enough to make anyone sick. xXx |

| I know about puppy mills, I've seen numerous shows and videos of them -- and it never fails to make me feel sooooo sick and horrified whenever I see this. My heart is breaks just thinking of what those babies went through. I'm so glad they are out of there. I'm a huge supporter of the Stop Puppy Mills campaign of the the HSUS (Stop Puppy Mills). They do wonderful things to help fight this sort of thing. If you can, please support them in some way. |

| I'm sitting here crying watching all these poor babies that have never known an ounce of kindness until now!! God Bless all the rescuers,Vets and groomers who helped with this raid and saved all these dogs!! There is a link @ Oprah's Website about adopting and donating to help with the cost of this raid! I hope to God they put these BAST*RDS in jail and let them ROT and then they go to HADES and BURN there!! They're dispicable low-lifes who deserve no less!! Prayers and Hugs to the raiding team and all these precious Little Ones!! I'm going to have Nightmares when I go to sleep!! This makes me so MAD!!!

| I echo msjagg's sentiments! I cried as I watched the first one and couldn't finish watching the 2nd one. I don't know how anyone could do this. |

| These videos made me sick to my stomach. God bless the rescue workers and vets who are helping these poor animals. Honestly, I would have set one foot in that place and probably passed out cold from seeing the horrific conditions. The dirty water bowl and the feces everywhere in giant piles. The poor guy with the 3-inch (!!!) toenails who couldn't walk because his hair was so matted... I don't understand how they were even able to mate these dogs! I'm going to see if I can find some "after" photos to cheer myself up. |
