That may be so. The dogs may be cared for. However, selling them at an auction is wrong. If she is done with her breeding program, they should all be spayed and neutered and placed in loving pet homes. Not allowed to be sold to the highest bidder and sent to Lord only knows where. I will not pass judgment as to how the dogs have been treated. I haven't laid eyes on them myself.

Let's say that she did take care of all 200 of her dogs, she had a full staff of employee to tend to these dogs, vetting, bathing, feeding high quality food, exercised and socialied every single dog at her facility. OK~I will give her the benefit of the doubt because you are correct that I personally have never been to kennel. BUT and this is a big BUT~she has now decided to close her business and take her 200 breeding dogs and sell them at an auction to the highest bidder. to go who knows were and live under conditions that she no longer has control over. She is treating them as a commodity and not as pets. They are being sold at AUCTION with a concession stand for god's sake! Did you not watch the video? Did you see what an auction looks like? Any breeder that would sell to the highest bidder is obviously doing it for the money and not love of the breed. She is a puppymill that is closing and trying to make a last buck off backs of these poor dogs. If she was a caring and responsible breeder that cared about the wellbeing of her animals she would spay and neuter each and every one of those dogs and sell them all as pets. That way she would at least know they would not be abused after leaving her care. But THAT would cost money and she would not be able to turn a huge and final profit.

Call me judgmental but I call it like I see it. If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck its a duck.
