  • Oh someone actually has video of this place. A good friend of mines uncle purchased a boston terrier puppy from these EXACT People! They had taken its brothers to uncle bills pet shop located In Indianapolis Indiana and were going to kill his puppy because it had a cleft lip. So glad someone has video of this.

  • PEOPLE FREAKING SUCK

  • Please don't let me be the only one to contact legislators and state reps to push for change.

  • This is sad... I hope these people rot in hell

  • this made me sick..dogs/puppies are meant to run around and play...not be locked up in cages... ): poor babies

  • I'm taken back by this video, I just can't believe it nor get it... I really like those people... Can usa apply animal protection laws in their communities?

  • SICK PEOPLE, HOPE HE BURNS IN HELL. AND THEY ARE SUPPOSE TO BE THE WONDERFUL AMISH. YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE AMISH R DOING. THEY ARE THE WORSE OF PUPPYMILLS. THEY NEED TO BE PUT DOWN.

  • may these people burn in a special HELL--Just for anumal abusers

  • God Help these poor dogs, puppies, It is horrible to think that this goes on these people should NOT be considered human. They are disgusting! Even the pups sold in pets stores are usually NOT healthy. The mom and fathers of these dogs are so UNHEALTHY not only physically BUT mentally, if by chance they can be rescued it is a long hard rehabilitation for them to trust humans again. Im amazed any American citizen does NOT realize where the cute puppy comes from in ANY pet store.

  • 5 Mose 23:18 Du sollst keinen Hurenlohn noch Hundegeld in das Haus des HERRN, deines Gottes, bringen aus irgend einem Gelübde; denn das ist dem HERRN, deinem Gott, beides ein Greuel.

  • This really upsets me!

    That piece of shxt should get a real job instead of killing poor animals!!!

  • ......................so fucked up.....

  • this is how fucked up the goverment is, they let this happen they talk bout saving animals and animal abuse but this is total contradiction of what they say, its so fucked up

  • Amish mother f*****, I would love to beat the balls off you. And burn down your entire place, I wouldn't even mind going to jail for it. Its scumbags like him that ruin this world.

  • I have had such a change of heart concerning the Amish. I realize that maybe not all of them are so cruel, soulless and heartless, but from what I have seen from many different sites..I no longer hold them in high regard. Dogs are NOT livestock!!! They are companions, protectors and friends. What is wrong with how people think? Pure ignorance and thoughtlessness. I used to greatly admire the Amish, but the more I find out how they treat other living beings, my views have changed!!!!

  • I despise those who abuse animals or people, that being said, I wish to point out that ALL of the Amish are being painted by a broad stroke with being labeled as "puppy millers" when there are many who are not& have beautiful& beloved family pets that are occasionally bred. I was lucky enough to have met an Amish family who for the 1st time had bred their German Shepherd& were strict about when we could take the pup home, wanted a vet reference& asked about our lifestyle. Amish doesn't = evil!

  • @kerry5101971 -- yeah, because there aren't enough unwanted dogs in this world already. people like you and that family are the problem. in case you didn't notice, there's a PET OVERPOPULATION problem in this country. "Approximately 5 million to 7 million companion animals enter animal shelters nationwide every year, and approximately 3 million to 4 million are euthanized (60 percent of dogs and 70 percent of cats)." -- so YOU can have a NEW PUPPY!

  • @Koodoze his brother name is levi graber look him up he is a broker he sells them to pet land we bought our pom there four months ago she died two days ago

  • So....did nothing happen to the Prince Charming who does this? What about his family? Are they still in the business? Peta should know about this. Now that this is publicly posted...did people protest?

  • two statements by a member of the "GENTLE PEOPLE'" stand out to me.

    "Dogs have been good to me" But he isn't good to them is he?

    "I just give them an OVERDOSE to kill them instead of taking them to a vet". UGH!

  • Comment removed

  • Religions fanatics.

  • Does anyone know ForSure if this MORON was for sure shut down?

  • @kimberlytracy03 he was not i got my pom from petland and pet land got her from levi graber john grabers brother they are also connected to the knepp family my pom died 3 days ago

    

  • I live right by here. Upsets me to know this is happening right in my own community. I think this person was shut down though.

  • If this guy is supposed to be Amish then why does he have a caculator and other electronic devices?

  • I had no idea that the pious holier=than=thou Amish sect harbored such monsters as this *breeder*. How could you not see the suffering of these poor creatures? How could it be ignored? Aren't religious people supposed to be icons of humane treatment for anything that breathes? I will never look at Amish *plain people* in the same way again. *shudder*

  • Terrible.

  • That is horrible and another reason why puppymills should be illegal ! :(

  • Amish do not use phones, so I do not believe this is an Amish individual. However, it's a good video to show where your "PET STORE" puppy is from. There are no pet stores that use legit breeders, it's all people out for money and not breeding for the love of the dogs or betterment of the breed.

  • Why are there so many slow motion effects in this video. Adds nothing really.

  • that is sick put them in a cage and treat them bastards the same way!!!!!

  • Just curious as to how the new law has affected the way this is continued to be allowed. I have some opinions on the veterinary enablers, including my local USDA vet, but what can be done? I have to attend professional meetings with these guys.

  • Those who disrespect the creation, show lack of contempt for the creator

    -Amish Proverb

    Absolutely not all Amish are this way.

  • looks to me that this guy is not amish but saying he is to get around pay social security because they are exempt

  • Comment removed

  • I'm confused how this could be titled Amish. The Amish don't use calculators, there's a phone right there on his desk.

    Where's the proof that this is Amish? Just because the guy says so?

    I do feel sorry for the dogs though, and I hope someone can get in there and take care of them.

  • @vargthewanderer

    Yeah, I thought it was damned peculiar to see an amish guy pulling a boat with a horse and buggy that was obviously malnourished per all the bones sticking out all over, only to launch that same boat and then proceed to tear across the lake in less than a minute with a gasoline engine. They also have generators, Computers, and all other manor of modern conveniences, just less taxes and obviously no conscience to bother them.

    No worries...god'll make it right 'eh?

  • "the dogs are good to me". then be good to the dogs! this man is a waste

  • Even if a jury wouldn't convict on animal cruelty what about tax evasion. He admitted he doesn't "turn in" income unless he is paid by check.

  • has anyone notified the humane society of the united states. They will free all these dogs. Matter a fact Im ganna right now

  • thanks for exposing this.

  • This is a very big problem in ohio too but I deliver to a lot of amish places and how some kids are treated are just as bad, child labor , no shoes or socks walking in animal shit and mud. I dont know how they get away with most people would go to jail for

  • Puppy Mills should go to HELL

  • amish arent the wholesome people everyone thinks they are.

  • This so disgusting - I can't even finish watching it!!

  • This so disgusting - I can't even finish watching it!!

  • An uplifting faith is a fine thing, but most of what passes for religion is an abomination and this backward fuckwit is near the top of that list. Anyone who can do this and then pray to God should be hit upside the head with a pipe. He is a waste of DNA.

  • Hating on all Amish because of this video is counterproductive. It doesn't help puppy one. Animal exploitation is the province of no particular creed. Hate feels productive, but it ain't. Put that energy into work and advocacy for the animals.

    When the Michael Vick story broke there was decrying and chest thumping right up to the halls of Congress. Everyone was disgusted but nobody changed the fact that there were dozens of fighting pits in District of Columbia near the Capitol.

  • The best way to shut down this miserable empire is to NOT BUY FROM PET STORES!!! 99% of pet stores buy from puppy mills! Adopt/rescue your companion animal from a shelter, especially a high kill shelter. For every animal you buy from a breeder/puppy mill, you condemn a shelter animal to death!

  • Comment removed

  • utterly, disgusting. i am so sad. i respect Amish people so much... but this is completely horrific. it has to be stopped!

  • I am really mad at the fact I live about 30 mins from odon indiana and no one here knew this was going on or so they say, other people had to have known if I had known I would have had this shit shut down a long time ago makes me think of what else people are hiding out here........

  • You know this is an older video, but it still upsets me. This people think they are God's chidren but they are hell bound.

    They are sick dirty people.

    I also blame the USDA for letting them continue. I live near Amish here in Michigan and I find them to be unclean, heartless crule people. I would love to get my hands on that jerk .

  • i own a kennel im not a puppy mill at all these kennels are not legal at all how can the usda certify these kennels, my dogs are vetted an fed well unlike them i dont breed dogs for profit dont generally breed dogs i take in dogs left for dead by bad dog hunters im a hog dog hunter for hogs donate half to the meat to feeding the poor who have nothing my dogs are fed well an spoiled this is a bad kennel on utube

  • what ever happened to this facility? Was it at least shut down?

    Please, tell eveyone you know NOT to buy pets fomr pet stores, the internet, or from breeders you don't know. FIND a way to converse about it. Knowledge will stop this!

  • ok they aren't going against them for animal cruelty? but what about tax fraud????

  • i live in daviess county, indiana. graber is a big name in daviess county. these people are not poor. this makes me sick! amish are good people , i really do not understand this. can not believe there were no charges. my son did a year for stealing a bike. john graber and the family that supports this. you should be ashamed! as a owner of three pits and a black lab, this makes me sick! i had no idea this went on in this amish community!

  • I dont know of any kennel that has been successful in breeding quality dogs on a large scale, not saying that it cant be done,

    most top working dog breeders i know breed on a small scale so they can handle the hard job it takes, and knowing not to quit there day job thinking that there dogs will carry them

  • I dont know why people buy pups with out knowing how there breed or were they came from,

    a few people breed dogs for profit but it never really pays and they never think to learn what it takes to properly breed dogs and properly take care of them,

    I learned at a young age working on a AA Dairy farm, were the cow were breed well and the care was top notch,

    I know puppymills were big a while back but people are more educated now, its just a few idiots that need to be slapped around

  • We derserve the Wrath of God!!! The world has no respect for any kind of life... Those Amish bastards had this well hidden...We are so lost!!!!

  • this is so humanly disgusting.

    imagine being locked like that,

    people get frustrated in a room..imagine a cage.

    animals are beautiful and i lovee peta for doing such a good job trying to protect them :)

  • This video just makes me SICK!!!I never knew that the Amish would ever do something likes this!!What is wrong with people now days?? Does any one have any morals about them selves anymore. But lets thank our good old government they just see to let anyone come over here and do what they want to anymore!!!!!!This video proves to everyone that if you have the money you can buy your way out of trouble!!! There is NO way he should of not been prosecuted to fullest!!!!!

  • nope morals are thrown to the side for money I am afraid

  • Wow WTF is wrong with people.

  • Ha, he says the dogs are good to him. Too bad he has not an ounce of heart for these poor things. He is a liar, a cheater and an abuser to the nth degree. I can't believe he got off. Unbelievable. I am dumbstruck.

  • Strengthen animal cruelty laws to that the penalties have real consequences. This is horrific, and the "state man" is complicit.

    The Graber family has to stop inbreeding.

  • davidbenjeshua I'd love to meet you as well as John Braber people like you make me sick....and you know what I am going to attack the AMISH I don't give a rats ass screw all of them!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND YOU you ignorant piece of shit get out of this post!

  • I would love to have one minute and one bullet FOR THIS PIECE OF SHIT!!!!!!!!!! GUN HIM DOWN, or maybe overdose him with some "Biosol" or "Wormer"!!!!!!!

  • It is really interesting to see how the argument here gets away from the issue at hand. The point is the PAIN AND SUFFERING inflicted on these animals all for the mighty buck! This is UNCHRISTIAN AND HYPOCRITICAL to say the least. Especially for the supposed G-d fearing people, these puppy farmers and those who support them should all rot in HELL!!

  • So much for the gentle G-d fearing, christian this man supposedly is. All he cares about is how much he can make off these poor things.

  • And we need to be kind and protect all of God's creations. Or do you think that some are just better than others?

  • CONTINUATION A dog fight is something different. Or starving an animal because you just don't think about its needs (you dont care enough). These are the kinds of treatment that said bible verse condemns. Shooting a sick dog, or horse, etc, has been a common practice for centuries (people can't even afford doctors and they should afford vets?) and it is not wrong. Torturing purposefully an animal, out of a sick, perverse pleasure quest, is different.

  • If you cant afford a doctor then why would you have a dog.

  • The verse in proverbs that bondroi quoted refers to purposeful abuses of animals, without an economic sense. If I put a yoke on a couple of bulls, they probably don't enjoy it, but that helps me feed my human family. If I kill a cow to make it into burgers, the cow doesn't enjoy it, but killing it is the farmer's way of life, and there is no sin in it, according to God's law. These dogs are treated just like other cattle, and I don't see why shouldn't they. READ CONTINUATION

  • If Bondroi says that Amish and Mennonites are not christians but a cult, He is lost and knows nothing about history. The first step to learn about Amish and Mennonite history is to read the entire text of the Bible. Then, read the martyrs mirror (online you can see it). While most other denominations killed their enemies, the Mennonites and Amish loved their enemies and didn't kill anybody. (Save for cows, chicken, dogs, and other cattle). What is your denomination, bodroid?. God Bless the Amish

  • One last thought. These people are bottom feeding slime, but ultimately everyone that buys a puppy from a pet store or breeder is the one who is the guiltiest. You are not part of the problem... you ARE the problem! If there is NO market, there will be NO puppy mills. Plain and simple. Next time you just gotta have that pure breed? Go to specific breed rescue sites. Or don't be so ridiculous about the way something looks. Give your love and home to a precious one in need. No matter their looks.

  • (Read after my previous entry.) Not only does this man have to answer to God for his unbelievable cruelty and greed, he is also a TAX CHEAT!! Jesus says in the gospels... "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesars." Which means pay your taxes! You want this freak shut down? Send this video to the IRS. I don't believe for one minute that this man or many like him are Christians. Of course that's not true about them all. I have for years lamented the way they abuse their horses. This is a CULT!

  • I am a Christian and those who blame God and the Bible for the cruelty of the Amish and Mennonites and other such cults, and I do mean CULTS, have not read the Bible themselves. These people have nothing to do with Christ or any of His words. They use their cults as a way to not be responsible. Here is what the Bible says about cruelty. Prov. 12:10 "A righteous man regards the life of his beast, but the tender mercies of the WICKED are cruel." I'll continue this in another entry...

  • I have never met more sincere, friendly, naive, hardworking, and pure people, than the Amish. An old fashioned farmer. What this guy did, 100 years ago, would not raise ONE eyebrow. But the way mainstream society lives today would raise all eyebrows. A society full of fornication, lasciviousness, inmorality, lying, bullying, easy anger, lack of respect, adultery, etc. There is a difference between the life of an animal (private property) and the life of a human. Whomever denies this is dangerous

  • Not in my book davidbenjeshua.

    All life is one and should be treated kindly and with respect.

  • We are not attacking the Amish, this video is not about Christianity. Multiple people have defined this treatment as cruel, even by your standards, yet you ignore those arguments and blindly repeat the same things. If you're going to continue this discussion try to respond to what is actually being discussed. These comments have become stuck on repeat.

  • Its an issue of religion. This Amish fellow is allowed by his religion to kill animals, in order to survive. His way of killing the dogs in not one bit more cruel than the way they kill cows, to eat their meat, or make shoes. Instead, his religion has made him go to jail and die burnt in the stake rather than killing fellow humans (even in self defense), his religion does not allow adultery, fornication, premarital sex, lying, HATING, nor denying Christ. Police is not needed among Amish.

  • I am absolutely APPALLED. I literally want to vomit on my laptop. I've been researching random acts of animal cruelty all day, and this is the FINAL STRAW.

    What the fucking hell man? Just THINK. THINK if it were vica versa and it were you and YOUR family staring at the barren walls of a cage for all eternity? I just want to... I hate him. When he dies, IF there is an afterlife, he is not going anywhere good.

  • I also think that a fellow that has probably slaughtered thousands of animals (cows, pigs, chicken, all that are eaten by us) in his lifetime has an easier time with killing an animal in general, and comes to the decision quicker and with less angst than the person who has never butchered anything more than a pumpkin at Haloween

  • davidbenjeshua, whether an animal is for domestic or commercial purposes, there is no excuse for cruelty.

  • The issue here does not pertain to a farmer shooting an old or sick dog. If the dogs in question were humanely being killed for a necessary product or serious health issue, than there would be no argument. Unfortunately, we're not analyzing a meat factory, we're discussing a farm that treats animals, meant to be sold as family pets, inhumanely. Dogs sold with hereditary diseases, which run rampant in "purebred" breeding facilities, are not quality products.

  • This whole industry is cruel to the breeding stock, the puppies being sold, and the ignorant consumers who have to pay for the faulty puppies. If you refuse to view dogs as the family pets that humans bred them for than at least analyze them as the unhealthy, poor quality, products they are.

  • There's a gulf between a farmer's understanding of animals as an economic product for their livelihood on one hand, and the urban-suburban understanding of animals as pets who are part of the family on the other. Farmers have to make decisions about their products (whether animal of vegetable) based on financial criteria, and thus are more cavileer about the life of an animal than suburbanites, whose relationship with animals is an emotional one not an economic one.(except at the grocery store)

  • oh my god sick. my grandpa is a farmer in odon his name is jim malone and he doesnt do this but it is sick

  • It is so sick how humans, like the man in this video, can do this to "man's best friend". All these animals want are love and compassion, and yet all they get is a tiny kennel and a life of pain. These people need to open their eyes and see what they're doing.

  • David you are right on , but I must say that I believe we have a responsibility to the animals that we have domesticated that they have a quality life , cows , chickens , goats , dogs , etc , Many years ago I raised 2 pigs and had them butchered , but I did so with a clear conscience because they were well treated mentally and physically . The factory farmer and Amish / mennonite puppy mill farmers do have a responsibility beyond serving their own greed and making money ,,,

  • I also think that a fellow that has probably slaughtered thousands of animals (cows, pigs, chicken, all that are eaten by us) in his lifetime has an easier time with killing an animal in general, and comes to the decision quicker and with less angst than the person who has never butchered anything more than a pumpkin at Haloween.

  • There's a gulf between a farmer's understanding of animals as an economic product for their livelyhood on one hand, and the urban-suburban understanding of animals as pets who are part of the family on the other. Farmers have to make decisions about their products (whether animal of vegetable) based on financial criteria, and thus are more cavileer about the life of an animal than suburbanites, whose relationship with animals is an emotional one not an economic one.(except at the grocery store)

  • I wonder why the guy talked so openly about his business ? To the public viewing DO NOT BUY PET SHOP PUPPIES !!! STOP the demand and they`ll have no GREED to BREED !!!

  • There is no excuse for cruelty. If you cannot practice responsible animal husbandry, do not keep animals at all.

    We need more awareness and more laws protecting all creatures from cruel owners.

  • Then maybe, just maybe you might have been taught that the word you were looking for was hyphenated "non-existant" not unexhistant. Stupid hick. You are the one who is a jerk for spewing all your bullshit nonsense. We are not stupid like you and therefore have the brain power to know that what this man and many others are doing to these animals that have no choice and no voice is wrong and should be punished. If someone beat you and left you for dead, I bet you would want the cops to justify it!

  • Understand, this man has probably killed many cows, pigs, chicken in his lifetime, animals that you probably eat without remorse, and whose skins make your shoes. Imagine having to kill a big, noble animal like a cow. Its not an easy task for an urbanite, but someone's gotta do it. Now, for him to kill any animal in general is easier than for the average person. Also, I remind you that the Amish devote huge amounts of money to feed the hungry here, in Europe and in Africa. They're christians.

  • I must agree with you to a certain extent on what you say there. Everybody does seem to get an uproar when a dog is involved but when it comes to a cow or chicken being slaughtered they do not think twice. However, with that being said, I think the main concern is that these animals were not being properly cared for. My husbands family raises cows which end up being "slaughtered in the end, but they are well cared for and fed in the meantime. I do agree the Amish are Christians.

  • Dogs, and cows, unlike humans, are private property. Dogs, in the old testament, are in the list of impure animals, but I believe Jesus with his blood made them pure. In any case, it is not right to take someone else's private property. I think that people should first submit to Jesus and work on their own shortcomings before saying they want to kill a guy like this Amish guy. Do you commit adultery? fornication? do you lie? do you hate? I think we oughta fix ourselves first.

  • If animals don't have souls, as these so called 'humans' believe, then neither do humans, who are just another species of animal. Christians?! My foot! These people are a disgrace to the human race. They are one of the lowest forms of life on this planet. I'd put cockroaches above them in the 'spiritually aware' category!

    What monsters!

  • "These people" Are you referring to all Amish people or just this man? I would hope you are only referring to the man that you are angry with in video because many of the Amish people that I have been fortunate to come in contact with are kind and generous people. I am sure there are some that do wrong as do the general public.

  • soverbey, I do mean 'these people'. This kind of cruelty is common among the amish communities because their religion tells them it's fine to abuse animals.

  • "They're christians." You use that as an excuse? That is not an excuse. Christians can be just as cruel or kind as anybody else. Somebody's personal beliefs about a god do not neccesarily influence their sense of right and wrong.

  • For Christians, the Bible influences our sense of right and wrong. And killing dogs is not wrong, nor cows, nor chicken. Yet, being cruel towards animals is said in the Bible to be wrong. I really don't think these dogs have a worse lot than most cows. Think about it. After this period of growing, they get sold to a home where there are pampered until they die, without working. Rights come along with responsibilities. I dont think dogs have civil rights 'cause they dont have civil responsibility

  • What about the breeding dogs that will never leave their tiny cells? They won't be adopted out to a cushy home. They will breed multiple times a year until their uteruses rupture and they can't bear litters. Then they will be shot. Dogs are bred to work, which by your definition would earn them rights, but these aren't given a chance. Breeding untill you die is hardly a job. I define that kind of a lifestyle as cruel.

  • I like that reply.

  • @Bk9osu I agree- he clearly says the dogs never come out, that is sickening. That is their whole life. At least let them out for fresh air and exercise, and give them proper medical care.

  • @Bk9osu "Breeding untill you die is hardly a job. I define that kind of a lifestyle as cruel."

    And yet most religions call this lifestyle for women "virtuous".

  • @Bk9osu well said.

    

  • the bible should never be taken literally

  • Did they show the customers what their money was going to fund? Nope. Did any of those breeder dogs look like they were in excellent condition to you? Nope. And they arent stolen dogs if the state in which they reside decides that the arent being properly cared for. Dogs arent private property, they are living breathing being who think with their minds. Something you obviously know nothing about, davidbenjeshua. Maybe you should have went to an actual school and been educated.

  • If you take a dog from a shelter, you are taking a stolen dog, if it has been "rescued". If the dog has been donated or found in the streets, thats another story. Many people make their living making NGO's that supposedly "rescue" dogs from puppy mills and make these amish look like jerks. But they are the jerks themselves. A true animal activist should not even use shoes made with leather. nor eat hamburgers. Of course such a person is almost unexistant. God Bless the Amish!

  • Animals are private property. Dogs are no different than cows, or lambs. Whoever takes private property with violence is a thief. Are you a Jehovah Witness, hotqtphimu? Anyway. The customers should decide whether they want the dogs or not. THE PEOPLE, not the government. The Amish produce excellent dogs, like they produce excellent stock of other kinds. Face it. Dogs are animal stock, like cows or lambs. You eat your hamburgers but you dont kill the cow. Go kill a cow and then eat your burgers.

  • The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated

    -Mahatma Gandhi

  • This is very sad. Should you want an AKC registered dog(puppy), don't buy them at petstores. Find responsible breeders who care about the breed, not their profit. We have a Pembroke Welsh Corgi. Our breeder is awesome! Rescues and shelters are also good places to find animals. Stop puppy mills!!!

  • And last but not least, to all owners of dogs in the -poo family (yorkiepoo, shipoo, ect) they are designer mutts. Just because you went to the pet store and overpaid for a mutt doesn't make you innocent or smart. The AKC papers on those dogs are about as worthless as the puppymill that created them. Nine times out of ten, those were accidental matings. Do your research. Designer dogs are mutts for profit. Might as well go to a shelter or breed rescue, better results-less money.

  • As for everyone else, the government aka USDA sanctions this. IF they quit lisencing for commercial breeders (im sure we all agree that between shelters, private breeders and breed rescues, there are more than enough dogs). I have been a pet-store employee all the way up to vet tech and i absolutely refuse to purchase a pet-store dog and encourage mixed breeds and breed rescues above them. Dont waste $600 because you want "cute." Use common sense and buy for love and life not purebreed status

  • Don't excuse one sin,(ie animal cruelty when we are supposed to care for and oversee them since you are such a "christian") by stating the good he does. I'm sure another puppymill owner pays taxes or buys boyscout cookies, but what their doing by abusing animals is STILL WRONG. And there are plenty of other religions that get persecuted who don't run illegal puppymills-Jehovah's Witnesses that abstain from pre-marital sex, drugs, gambling and on. So you need to do your research before you speak.

  • look david ben whoever, all animal cruelty is wrong--dog or cow. The difference in these dogs and cows is much, for instance dogs get sold to people ALIVE, and the buyer expects a certain level of health to be present. This video is not persecuting the Amish, there are plenty of videos out showing puppy mills operated by men and women of every race and not one of them can claim persecution.

  • There is nothing wrong in eating hamburgers, I think, (except the cholesterol and the fact that to produce a gram of protein from meat costs like 20 grams of vegetable protein). God gave all animals to be under mans dominion, and if cows are treated this way, I dont see how dogs should get more civil rights. It is simple, if you dont like it, dont buy them. But of course, since the Amish produce EXCELLENT specimens, PEOPLE BUY THEM. the sick ones get shot, as it happens with cows that we eat.

  • Where in the hell is this and I hope it's gone now, what a crock of shit. That's what we should do is, take a gun and shoot the people that do this, kill'em all!

  • This guys children wait until marriage and stay married for life, they dont have luxuries but give a higher percentage of their income to feed the poor than ANYOTHER church in America. Just a TINY TINY bit of investigation, and you will love the Amish. Dogs are cute, but cows are also cute, the cows that you eat. Behind all this save the puppies scheme, is religious persecution by the roman church. READ a little bit I promise youll find out. God Bless the Amish, who feed the needy and hopeless.

  • Now in a free nation THE PEOPLE (THE MARKET) decides whether the dogs are healthy or not. If you think a dog aint healthy, go adopt a STOLEN dog from some thief that makes a living being a hero AND STOP EATING HAMBURGERS. HAVE you seen how a cow gets killed in the slaughter house? Same with most animals. Defective ones get same or similar treatment. Because dogs are cuter are you going to be horrified? This guys children dont swear, dont use drugs, wait until marriage and stay for life married

  • I repeat. If you dont like the animal growing field, STOP EATING HAMBURGERS. How has a cow less rights than a dog? because dogs are cuter? Read the entire Bible and understand: The amish have been persecuted EVER by the roman church because of their refusal to accept the Pope as the representative of christ on earth. They have NOT killed or faught back. Go to the "MARTYRS MIRROR" (a book made in the 1600 to see how these guys have been targeted. Its free online. Ignorance persecutes the Amish.

  • While this guy has a million dollars farm, his kids walk without shoes, to remind them of the poverty of persecution (catholics used to kill them by the thousands) and to remain humble. Meanwhile, he sends thousands of dollars to save hungry kids in ukraine and africa, and here too. HOW MANY dollars you used to feed the hungry in your whole life? If you read the entire bible and learn about amish history, youll understand them better. Dogs are PRIVATE PROPERTY, and only THIEFS takewhatainttheirs

  • This is the same kind of guy who gives a lot of his income to support hungry children of "englishers" in America, Ukraine, Africa (christian aid ministries) He doesnt EVER draw from social security, no matter how sick he may be. He forgives the killer of his daughters. Read about the guys who killed an amish man who got forgiven by his family, who pleaded for a pardon from the OHIO governor, when they were sentenced to death (and got it). THESE GUYS ARE among the few christians left.studyhistory

  • OK. THIS FARMER and his fellow farmers, go and kill their lambs, or cows, or turkeys, with their own hands. Have you ever been present at such an event? I have. Its a horrisome task for a "dude" (city person). Look at the faces of the beautiful little lambs, and tender cows. BUT YOU, VIEWER, eat your hamburger without passing through the killing. Or your Mc-Chicken without chopping off the head of the chicken. Think about it. For this guy, dogs are just animals like any other. but see his sons.

  • He doesn't seem to have much respect for life. Is that part of the Amish teachings?

  • omg how could someone have hte heart to do that. f u puppy mills.. thAT Video was so sad i felt so bad for the dogs. one day i will run for president and make this illigAL

  • The people that buy these dogs are just as guilty as the ones that are breeding them.

  • ΝΑ ΨΟΦΗΣΕΙΣ ΚΑΙ ΝΑ ΚΑΕΙΣ ΣΤΗΝ ΚΟΛΑΣΗ ΚΑΡΓΙΟΛΗ!!!!ΓΑΜΩ ΤΟ ΚΤΗΝΟΣ ΠΟΥ ΣΕ ΓΕΝΝΗΣΕ ΓΙΑΤΙ ΑΝΘΡΩΠΟΣ ΔΕΝ ΕΙΣΑΙ!

  • amish are religious people, right?!

    regardless all the obvious cruelty going on in this puppy mills, the fact is that too many often people use religion to persecute eavenillness, no matter being conscious or not about it. How does that make religious peolple good people when they practice wrong actions such ass those? i have nothing against religions or believes but i do have when those same religions fail in their purposes by making of our world a sade and cruel one to be living in.

  • i just don´t care what religion they practice cause the bottom line is that people like this are not human, they just have no heart and my only consolation is knowing that all their actions in their life will somehow turn back to them, soon or later.

    UNTIL ALL DOGS ARE FREE FROM HUMAN IGNORANCE AND CRUELTY, FIGHT FOR THEIR RIGHTS.

  • ok this is just stupid to do to dogs, i mean really. Who in the world would do these things to dogs? Well my guess is the damn Amish! I wished that the guy would have to give up his kennel and be in prision!!!!

  • Understanding how many (but not all) Christians "interrupt" the Bible concerning animals that God gave them dominion over the animals then this video makes sense from that view point. They feel that they can do anything they like to animals because they are the animals master (god). They also believe that animals do not have souls nor do they feel pain as a human would. I think this Amish guy sucks and I hope he gets his justice here on earth and beyond.

  • It is hard to look at the face of evil. Not to be a nerd but Geoge Lucas said it best. Evil people do not think that they are evil. He probably sees nothing wrong with what he is doing. To him these dogs are nothing more than a crop.

  • do you eat hamburgers? how are cows less than dogs that you feel entitled to eat them?

  • Excellent point. You nailed it right on the head. This is how we often treat livestock. It is a shame. Good thing I am Vegan.

  • I saw things worse than that at our local "humane society". Why won't people just spay and neuter for crying out loud. Animals eat other animals, of course, but why the tight little cages? YUck.

  • If the prosecutor didn't think he would be found guilty by that county, couldn't they have taken the case to another county? I'm tired of all the Amish getting away with everything: building codes, religious discrimination, health codes, etc.!!!!! If they are so religious, then why do they treat humans or God's little creatures the way that they do? What a shame! I know that they're not all like that......

  • These people should have to live in the same conditions. God love the animals.

  • This seems to be a growing problem with the Amish or maybe its just now coming full cirlce. Not sure if any of you have heard of the amish man who caught wind that he was going to be investigated so he terminated all 80 of his dogs with no charges brought against him. I hope PETA performs some very irrational act against these people

  • This is so sad and inhumane. I wish I knew where this bastard lives. I hope he's been shut down...what a sorry excuse for a human being. Those poor dogs....The part that makes me sick is where he says, "The dogs are good to me." And in return he treats them like shit.

  • I'm totally against puppy mills!!!!!!!!

  • amazing, HE KNOWS ITS CRUEL AND THAT PEOPLE WOULDN'T HNDLE IT SO HE HIDES IT , HE CHEATS TAX , HE CORRUPTS OFFICIALS; WOW WHAT PEICE OF SCUM, JUST AS WELL SLAVERY IS ILLEGAL, GIVES YOU A BIT OF AN INSIGHT !

    Why are religious people always the worst?!

    CAUSE RELIGION MESSES YOUR HEAD.

  • Agreed. It's supply and demand that keeps the puppy mill cruelty going. No reputable breeder sells their puppies to pet stores. Pet stores get their "stock" from puppy mills. They will claim they get them from USDA-certified breeders...which means very little in terms of animal welfare.

    Opt to adopt. Ignorance keeps people buying pet store puppies and ignorance keeps the supply and demand of puppy mills going.

  • They're good to him, but he's not good to them

  • its all about money ...what do they care they have big fat wallets...cant understand why it is allowed to go on but then it is feeding a need and ingnorant folk are going to buy cute little pups from pet shops/breeders/websites despite the ammount of strays in rescue centres or walking the streets that dont look so cute because they have been abused or they are emanciated...they need cuddles too and a loving home but no one cares so it will carry on,those in power will do fuck all to stop it

  • I agree. Ignorant is the best word to describe puppy buyers. They go to the store, see the bright lights and cute little faces and never make the connection that those puppies came from a mill. They keep buying and they keep the cruelty in-business. "USDA-certified" only means 6" in front of their face and 6" above their body, and 6" on each side. That's it. To the Amish and many others, dogs are cash crop and nothing more.

    Opt to adopt.

  • Absolutely adopting a stray is far better. Im from the UK so I wasnt aware of the regulations regarding USDA-certified space for dogs and that can only be described as confinement. Dogs need to run about, have adventures, go for long strolls ...feel the grass beneath their feet! Obviously Mr Money Grabber has a name that fits well. To anyone who views the video pass it on and spread the word... stop the suffering! If people arent aware it will never change

  • These people ought to be arrested and sent to live in cages like they had the animals in. Where is the ASPCA?

  • We are on the same page...anything else will not have the same "bite".

  • This is simply awful and I thought the dogs were the animals...

  • This makes my stomach turn. I would like to be put in a room alone with people who do these awful things to animals.....ANIMALS DO NOT DESERVE THIS!!!!

    Oh & TFABRIC......TFABREEZE whatever YOU are the idiot!!! ANIMALS ARE = to HUMANS....and it's LOSERS like you who make many of us prefer ANIMALS!!!!!!!!!!!

    ANIMALS HAVE RIGHTS!!!

  • How can you raise any animal without keeping them safe, healthy and well fed. Ranchers have nothing but contempt for the bad rancher that doesn't properly care for their cattle. It should be the same for those who raise puppies. It's betraying a trust and is disrespectful to God and His creations.

  • This sounds like an excellent case for the IRS man to take a look at!

  • Taracheck - you're a moron. What this guy did was dispicable, but you're comparing humans to dogs. Get a friggin life.

  • tfibri!!! Can I please be the one to shove you back up the vagina that spit you out?! I´m comparing the actions...this is not comparing humans to animals directly! Even though there should be no difference between humans and animals when it comes to victims of abuse!

    Here we have two human beings, doing pretty much the same thing...though, one is doing it to 70 dogs and not his own flesh and blood! I just do not understand how anyone who abuses anyone can get away with it! Life is a life!

  • Ummmm, no, life is not life. That's the point! Obviously your youth and naivete have not yet developed to the point where you can comprehend that. And get over your vagina fetish.

  • How can you say that "Life is not Life"? Everyone has a right to live, right? Right! Tell me...how come people who do terrible things to people get all over the news? And people who do terrible things to animals are just left to do whatever they please, like no one cares? No I love vaginas...they´re so useful when people like you come around acting childish and need to be put back into place! Fuckin´moron!

  • People like Fritzl in Austria can lock his daughter in his basement for 24 years and have babies with her...gets all over the news! Gets all the attention! He gets arrested! She´s free at last! People are horrified that these things can happen!

    People like this fucking lame-ass prick can lock 70 dogs in cages for their whole lives, breed on them, make them sick, depressed and then overdose or shoot them in the head...that´s called MURDER! I don´t see him making headlines all over the world!?

  • Taracheck - you're a moron. What this guy did was dispicable, but you're comparing humans to dogs. Get a friggin life.

  • ok i commented to fast(while i was halfway) but that was because i was angry sorry! but please everyone do something to get this bastard arrested!!!!

  • It would be just retribution if the Amish puppy mill owner gets reincarnated in his next life as a female dog kept in his puppy mill owned by his children who has the same belief system as he does now. If only there is such a thing as reincarnation. Or he gets captured by aliens and is kept like a dog in their spaceship as produce. Those dogs are actually employees of his business.. he should have the decency to provide decent benefits to employees who helped him prosper....God save the dogs!!

  • Another thing that we can do is make sure we don't get a puppy from the pet store, but adopt from the shelter...this guy needs to get locked in one of those cages where the dogs are!!

  • STUPID MOTHERFUCKING JACKASS!

  • What a piece of crap! It is sad that our judicial system has not done anything to this man. Some one needs to shut this guy down!

  • That bastard made $100,000 in one year by making so many dogs suffer...! Terrible...!
