Go ahead and experiment yourself. Search for that phrase at google.com from my first post above and see what you find in the top results. I'm sure you won't find any puppies being sold by people you believe to be reputable breeders/sellers.
This is the goal of any pet owner. Nobody in their right mind is looking for a puppy that has health issues.
And when you do nothing to help promote dogs that don't come from puppy mills, you are also becoming part of the reason that dogs are suffering. Unfortunately, posting about puppy mills here is not going to fix the problem.
Agreed. So, why is it so hard to do this? Do you really believe that if nothing is done to make this process eaiser that puppy mills are ever going to go away?
Again, nobody wants this. Also, I would find it hard to believe that you could find even one person who would be happy to buy from a puppy mill. But, many people do it. That just tells us that people are not informed. |
You would be surprised how many people come on here knowing they should not buy a puppy from a pet store but do anyway to "rescue" it or from a person in a parking lot selling puppies. You may think I am just sitting here doing nothing about puppy mills but that is your opinion because you have no idea what I do and don't. But if people did do there research they would be able to tell who's a good breeder and whose not. Like do they let there puppies go before 12 weeks, do they use words such as teacup, apple head, baby doll face, do they health test, can you see the parent and where the puppies grow up, are the akc registered, and some I have probably forgotten. There are many red flags a person should look for and if they do good research you should be able to pick out the bad ones and good ones. I try to educate about puppy mills every chance I get and I do not support them.
