| I showed the video to my brother today. He had heard of puppy mills before but figured they were just breeders with a lot of dogs. Let me tell you, my brother is a tough old bird but he was visibly moved by the images and couldn't watch it to the end. Everyone needs to see this type thing...at least once. No caring human can watch this and not be affected.

| Nancy, I was a little surprised at the effect it had on him. We had talked about mills before but I guess he had a different picture in his mind than I thought. I had only seen him get so emotional at family funerals before this. When I say 'tough old bird' about him, I mean this is an ex Navy Seal and Viet Nam era vet. Thank you for starting the thread.

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | It's been a year since Michaels Jackson's death and since his song is on this video, I thought I'd bump the thread. I encourage everyone to support the ASPCA's recommendation for making all breeders who sell over 50 dogs a year to register as a commercial breeder. Here's the thread about it, this is really important! http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/gen...mill-bill.html

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | I'm glad you bumped it - this kind of thing needs to be foremost on dog sites - so so many people have no idea what these places really are nor do they realize each pet bought in a pet store most likely came from them. I still can't believe how far behind this country is regarding dogs and the big problem - what is the harm in trying to STOP IT for good ? oh yeah - money and all the hands it passes thru without anyone caring where the money they're making is coming from, From the day I learned years ago about mills - auctions and all the other things that involve mass breeding and profit..........it has and always will make me SICK that not more is done to stop it |

Now if we could get them to do more regarding animal cruelity that would be something wouldn't it ? Too many turn a blind eye to the disgusting problem this country should NOT be having and it's been going on way way too long. If people really thought about the thousands of dogs/cats put to sleep due to irresponsible people and CARED .....a big dent would be put into those money making facilities. It has to be so hard for anyone working in shelters to make that walk with a doomed creature. How it's gone on so long is just beyond me. We should be better than this and I know things are being brought to light - but MORE needs to be done. | |

I've read that the number of inspectors vs mills are so far off balance it isn't funny - plus the inspectors let so much slide. I'll never ever understand how someone can see neglect and the massive amounts of miserable dogs sitting in horrible conditions and not try to do something - sure they may write a report - but in reality - the mills are winning. I really do hope what you said is true and will happen. Baby steps that's for sure but anything is better than nothing | |
