WARNING - GRAPHIC Pics to aid in saving Puppy Mill Dogs

[red98vett]

It IS a great idea....We did it months ago but we can do it again - ALL the shows have contact info opn their websites - Oprah is compassionate and I think 60 minutes is a good one - Also ...contact your LOCAL media -

All someone has to do is take ONE letter and mass mail it to the various stations - it really doesn't take that long and there are many dog lovers in the media - we sure aren't the only ones outraged...but sometimes the media just needs that ONE letter to get their attention....

Thank you to EVERYONE who is helping... this is really good feedback for this problem.....WE all really CAN make a difference....

Since last monday , TVA station of Montreal have started announcements against petstores and puppymills .

[red98vett]

this thread is ONE YEAR OLD - but worth another run with the holidays coming and all the Pet STore talking on the site - not intended to offend ANYONE who bought from a pet store - just offering a history of where they may get their puppies

[Olivier]

This thread is very important and should stay there .

They are too many byb , petstores and puppymills in this world .

I don't think I'll ever get those images out of my mind All I can think of every day, since we got her, is where Luna's mother might be and how horrible she's being treated

I'll do whatever I can to help.

awwww.....I know it must break your heart - most people don't really know where Pet Store puppies come from - till I was online I know I didn't.

A simple letter from each one that reads these threads about mill puppies just MAY be the letter that gets someones attention -

We have PETA out there -but many in power think they're all fanatics - I may not agree with some of their tactics - but I sure do agree with their stand to HELP THE ANIMALS that are being mistreated and abused and used for Profit at any cost - and that's what a Mill does...who in turn - sells to that Pet Store in your town. (I mean this in the broad sense ....meaning every town - not just yours Lunasmomma)

[red98vett]

I did want to say I'm only bumping this because of the holidays and all the people out there who MAY think of getting a puppy at the pet store - just educate yourself before you buy that little soul -

that little adorable cute puppy probably came from a place that is far from CUTE and adorable.... and anyone reading this who may be outraged - you CAN make a difference if you try -

YESSS lets all send letters to Oprah!!! that should spread the word really quick!

[Dragonfly]

I'm truly sorry for these poor animals, throw in trash cans how sick!!! The pictures broke my heart..... Why can't they put the so called human in where the poor dogs had to live. S,O.B I hope they burn in HELL!!

[Tophersmom]

I can also totally understand the desire of many to rescue that little face behind the bars of the cage in the pet store....to give that 'one' little pup a home with lots of love and kindness.

The only problem is, once that pup is purchased, another one has to be bred to take it's place. The cycle relies 100% on our desire to help that 'one' little pup. If we all stopped doing business at these stores...stopped buying these pups, then mills would have few places to sell to.

I agree that there should be a law that forbids stores from selling puppies/dogs/cats, etc., but I don't know if that's going to happen any time soon. Sometimes it comes down to the public just saying 'NO WAY ARE WE GOING TO BUY PUPPIES FROM PETSTORES ANYMORE!!!'

Villette, thank you so much for spreading the word.

I have promoted puppymill education on my site for several years, and happily have gotten several people that have visited one, or all of the pages email me in their support, and say they would also spread the word. These are the pages on my site about puppymills
