I love meeting other’s concerned with puppy mills. I think it is 100 percent of all dogs in pet stores are from puppy mills.. No responsible breeder gives there dogs to stores to sell. They like to know who their pups are going to.

The one time I bought a puppy from a breeder instead of adopting… I was asked so many questions about how I lived and how I would take care of the dog… I thought she wasn’t going to let me take him home. Responsible breeders also want their dogs back if for any reason you can’t care for it…

Good article..

Hi Kim,
I’m the guy on your left on the last leg of your return from San Francisco. This is a great blog, and I’m not a blog-reader. You hit a nerve with this article on puppy mills. I’ve always gotten cats and dogs from the local animal shelter, though that hasn’t always been great.
Keep up the good work!
Morris

Thank you for Twittering with me about this the other day. You have already begun educating people.

Great job!

Thanks for adding your part to the discussion around this issue. The first dog my wife and I bought was direct from a puppy mill. We actually drove to the mill and bought him. We didn’t know better. The dog we have now is straight from the local animal shelter and she is the best dog I’ve ever had. The word needs to get out!

Oh Kim, I write this with tears, so sad. Such an overwhelming task. As a mom to 5 kids and 4 dogs, it breaks my heart.

So so sad… Thanks for the reminder. Bless ‘em. I hope there will be another showing of Oprah’s show. I heard about it too late to set the DVR.

Sarah – Thanks. I needed the show as that reminder! Speak louder even when painful.

Cyndee – Way to help spread the word! That’s exactly what they need!

gotbob – Yerp. Some of it is ignorance, but a lot of it is stupid. Allow the heart to feel
