6 old week puppy

These are all the BYB that fly right under the radar... all the new laws and fancy regulations and licensing and restrictions and rules, etc, that were supposed to stop all this type of "animal abuse", have absolutely NO effect on the very people all the rules were designed to correct and eliminate!. Instead, all the new laws and restrictions are driving competent, ethical, loving, caring, responsible breeders out of business....and these "parking lot pups" are the types of puppies that will one day, be all anyone can hope to buy. What a sad day that will be........

I do agree... but it is such a thin line that the people who either buy or take the puppies walk. I do understand we should walk away, not enable them, but when you look into the eyes of a little puppy it is so very very hard to do.

My dd just rescued a puppy for a rescue group near Chicago. The dog is some kind of mix, all the signs of poor breading and having been abused. My dd loves this dog and she did the right thing by getting her from a rescue group. She almost bought a yorkie from a pet store... I kept texting her pictures of puppy mill mommies and she walked out of the store. LOL.. she went from almost buying an overprice puppy mill yorkie to resuce of the most homely pup I have very seen. I am so proud of her!

That is sad. It is amazing how many byb there are out there. And this time of year. It seems like there is even more. Just in my paper there is a bunch. And as the weeks progress there will be almost a page full.

aqoh i agree, I just paid a $275.00 kennel license fee, the new rule is so weird in my town I know is all about the money, and not about the animals.
at this rate I am really considering stop showing and breeding, is getting really hard to comply and specially we don't know how many more rules and regulations are coming. Peta is pressing the administration for new weird regulations and if those keep coming at this rate is going to drive lots of good breeders out of breeding period..the only ones left are going to be the secret BYB , the big kennels and the Amish puppy mills. Like the Twinkie we will dissapear, moderate regulations are good but our goverment is over regulating way too much..

I couldnt agree with you more!!! I am a sucker for puppies in boxes and trunks of cars!!! That is why I just CAN NOT even go look in those boxes or trunks!! I stay out of pet stores that sell puppies....DENIAL??? Yes, probably, but I have no control over any service that could in my opinion, make a dent in this abusive situation....there is NOTHING I can do for these poor babies, except take them home, out of the situation.....and there we are! Supporting the very scoundral that is creating the problem in the first place!!!

Did you pay for this puppy or were they giving them away? We have a terrible problem in my area with people who give away the kittens and puppies that their unspayed female had. Then the babies end up at the shelter at about 6 months of age or they get dumped in my backyard.

They aren't breeders. They are offspring that result when people are too ignorant to get their pets spayed or neutered even though there is a low cost program that is always available. I have lost count of how much money I have spent getting these drop offs healthy, spayed or neutered and then finding new homes. Others seem to be able to turn their heads and say it is not their problem. They say I'm nuts for doing it but I don't know how to just look away. The no kill shelter is almost always on overflow so I can watch them freeze to death or do something.

I just can not comprehend why people don't. I keep hearing because it is too expensive. Well if expense is an issue then you should not get a pet in the first place. And now there is so many cheap spay and neuter clinics and vans. In NYC if you have a pit and you don't have the money they will actually do it for FREE! No excuse !

yes i paid some money but im more happy that money went to getting him out of there. i also took him to a vet and he will need his shots in a few weeks. and they gave me advice about what to feed how much etc.
and just to let everyone know my mother in law actually is going to keep him she went out and brought kennel blankets toys food. he found a great home where he will be loved

hugs,

God help the person I ever find doing this in a parking lot....I suppose your right, these people will do anything for $$$...unreal..

It is a mindset. When I try to find homes for these animals I get calls from people just like this. I always talk to people and find out where they are coming from before I even let them come to look at an animal. When I ask about spaying and neutering of other animals they have had I get some of the most unbelievable answers. They are not even ashamed to admit that they don't spay or neuter. Needless to say they never get a pet from me even though I do make sure they have had the proper surgery done before I find them homes.
