| What is this list? I got Chewy from a pet shop and was curious in looking up her breeder. His name is Richard Hoffman in MO. I found him on this site...but i cant figure out what the site is...? http://www.aphis.usda.gov/animal_wel...rt_holders.txt Does anyone know if there is a site where i could look up every breeder who is registered...I cant seem to find any info on him. Thanks |

| I believe it means that he/she is registered with the USDA. I also believe registration with the USDA often indicates a puppy mill.

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Chances are you're right. Mills sell to Pet Stores. They may call them breeders but the bottom line is they're usually BAD Breeders/and or a Puppy Mill - Which is why we talk so much about never buying from Pet Stores - but lots of people don't know that and find out only after they've bought a puppy. |
