This is just awful! It's time that something be done to put an end to this. Hopefully, these dogs will find a home where they will be loved and treated well.

makes me furious how heartless and braindead people can be

Isn't there a government or local agency that monitors these places? How can we find out about this beforehand? Shouldn't pet stores at least be required to disclose their sources so that they in turn can be checked up on regularly? This has gone on to long. It is RIDICULOUS there is no one being held accountable and in check. Let's all put our heads together and figure out out a no fail system and present it to our local and state legislators. If we all force our pet stores to disclose their breeder contacts, that is a first step we can all take. Who did this breeder sell to? Let's all track this down. C'mon people, each one of us can make a difference. Let's show the world us Yorkie people take care of our own, and all the other poor creatures entrusted to our care!!!!!

We as consumers must be more diligant about researching breeder backgrounds before purchasing from them. If we do this more, then surely those filthy puppy mill breeders will be exposed, and their "sales" will cease. I'm sure that will make them think twice about the level of care they provide. It's so sad to see how many corners some breeders will cut to make a quick buck. Like wise, it's just as sad to see a consumer purchase from them at a "steal of a deal" when they know full well that they're getting that "steal of a deal" because the breeder isn't up to par. I wish we had a puppy mills exposed site, so that we could really put those bad breeders out there.

What is wrong with people? How could anyone do this to animals? I just don't understand how people could even go around the animals and live their normal lives...

I am so happy there are survivors in this horrific nightmare.

i don't know what to say...
hurts deep inside my soul...

prickleypear · 10-10-2007, 06:03 PM

That just makes me sick and brings tears to my eyes. Who are these people? Have they been charged?

Bloomingtails · 10-11-2007, 11:16 AM

From the rescue group I belong to, there are yorkies, chihuahuas and I think bichons and an effort is underway for these dogs to be turned over to rescue rather than the humane societies in the area who are all full up from a previous bust from this mill.

We are considering going down to Texas to take some of the dogs thru our rescue, Wolf Spirits Toy Breed Rescue.

I expect to know more tonight.

How can someone do that to these poor animals?? How do they sleep at night? I hope there's a special place in hell for people who do this to these poor babies......

I'm going to go hug my dogs, too......

She was arrested september 29, and released oct. 5 on a 20 thousand dollar bond. she has previously been arrested for public intoxication, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and aggravated robbery (all at different times). This whole thing was about a mile away from my grandmothers house...

How sad to think that was all happening so close to your grandmother! I hope she decides to discontinue selfishly making her money at the expense of innocent animals.

And welcome to YT!!

Give it time to load

I could'nt finish to see this video. I feel sad and sick for all these dogs. Even in a certain point, I feel even guilty to spoil so much my little Kissie and all these poor little creatures suffering in hell.
I am so emotionnal. I know that if would living alone and I could do what I want, I would take all the dogs I see suffering. But it's only a dream.

I don't even understand how these puppy mills sell puppies that have lived in these conditions. It is crazy. So... what? They take care of the puppies just not the parents? If the puppies looked like this who would take them? Why would you not take care of the parents... even if you didn't love on them... which is horrible... still... why wouldn't you keep them healthy if you are trying to make money? This is just insanity... it must be crazy people....
