  • why would someone put an innocent animal thru such horrible pain! its not fair at all and those people should be punished HARSHLY!

  • What I'd like to see is the owners of puppy mills be put in cramped cages, have no food or water, sleep in their feicies, be hit and treated badly...and watch their co-workers die. I bet they would NOT like that.

  • I want a job that helps dogs now !:D The puppies in this video are soo cute

  • I want a job that helps dogs now !:D

  • I want a job that helps dogs now !:D dumb puppy mills

  • Ben Stein needs to do some research about HSUS rather than just parrot what he's been told. Dr. Phil bought his cute little dog from a shelter and look what it's become.

    Ben, tell more people to buy from shelters and rescues. Then check the assests of the shelters and resuces and report back to us about who is making all the money and at what cost to people.

    Tell us where the dogs in shelter's and recuses come from after you've done your research.

  • my dog is from a puppymill, and now shes getting sad cause shes not having babies,

  • I bought my dog online before I knew about puppy mills. I wish I wouldve adopted.

  • stupid puppy mills! my frekin dog lost a leg in one of them

  • puppy mills are like the holocaust for dogs, the only difference is it's not mass extermination it's mass reproduction.

  • Ben Stein is also a creationist, but oh well.

  • executing the owners of puppy mills in a electric chair is a favor to them , they ruined thousands of lives of innocent dogs and takeing there life is a very mild punishment too bad we cant even do that so the dogs got there lives ruined without justice

  • wow this is sad the people that run puppymills must not have a heart

  • Puppy Mills should be called DEATH FIELDS :mad:.

    I HATE'EM!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I hope all of the puppy mills burn in hell (without the dogs in them, of course)

  • You should really do what you feel is best for you. Adoption as a first resort please! If you feel you must buy, buy from a reputable breeder and not a mill!

  • How could ANYBODY do this? I, as an Indigo, have a special bond with animals and this is just cruel. People think animals aren't the same. Well to those stupid, retarded, self centered, must-rot-in-hell people who work at puppy mills, they should put YOU in a human mill. Would you like that? Cuz' its what your doing to this innocent loving dogs.

  • people dislike this video because they dislike the sight of puppy mill (its not a joke because i thought "do i like or dislike" because i thought i dislike the puppy mills put i like how he cares & probably other users thought the same thing)

  • even if we shut down all puppy mills or make them illigal, it wont stop people from being irresponsible and continue poorly breeding dogs for their own benifit.

  • I hate puppy mills, but I hate ben stein and his retarded christian agenda more.

  • THE GOVERMENT SHULD CLOSE AL PUPPY MILLS

  • Thats so true and so SAD !!!

  • thank you for letting me know about this.. im looking to adopt a dog right now.

  • Puppy Mills are really bad. If you want to breed dogs, be nice to them, give them love, and a comfortable place to be. Not 5 puppies in a 3 foot cage, wit no beds, treats, or love.

  • I don't understand how someone can be against puppy mills while sitting in their home eating a hamburger or a pork sandwich. Stein has been seen eating hamburgers on Glenn Beck. Hypocrite.

  • I hate puppy mills that's why I never buy a puppy from petsmart petco and today's pet

  • puppy mills should be banded!

    i love these guys who help these pore creatures!

  • i bought my dog but i bought him from a loving family.<3

  • i bought my dog but i bought him from a loving family.<3

  • Puppy mills remind me of the holocaust death camps. Why can't Obama put a stop to this cruelty?

  • this is stupid. most dog breeders i know have been labeled as puppy mills. yet they take very good care of their animals. they are honest hard working people. if the dogs in this video have truly known no love then they would be scared and in terrible health. their were very few dogs in this video in bad health. most of them looked healthy and happy to see people. i have seen abused and adopted a few, but the truth about puppy mills is 99% of them are not as bad as the name they have been given

  • omg, i hate puppy mills!!! ive seen pictures of them and read about them, and think of those poor dogs out there who have to spend their whole entire lives in a chicken coop outside in the hot or cold, or perhaps inside with rats and roaches. if you feel bad for puppy millers, you are out of your mind!!!

  • do you people think that breeding dogs and TRYING to make perfect dogs to be sold to loving familys is as horrifying as it gets? watch sum vids about dog and cat fur/meat trade in china, u have no idea how grusome this stuff is compared to this.

  • these people that own puppy mills should suffer as long as these dogs did they should feel how its like they should stay in prisin for THE REST OF THERE CRUELTY LIVES!

  • i hate animal abuse, but ben stein is a retard

  • This commercial should run at least twice an hour on EVERY channel EVERY day, EVERY year.

  • what a stand up job the HSUS does for animals. ^ ^

    way t go you guys! <333

  • Thank you hsus IM A HUGE INIFNITY DOG LOVER I WANTED A DOG SINCE when i was small look at me i was gonna go get won from the pet store when i heard of this to the shealter rofl! THX keep it up!

  • i want to be an animal rescuare when i grow up:)

  • I work at a humane society. So many horrible cases come in. Your heart gets hard. I own a former puppy mill dog, I've felt the heart stop on a dog that was drug from his owners truck because he lost in a dog fight. We've had dogs come in starved, beaten, with collars embedded inches into their necks...you really want this job?

  • @wisconsin1545 me TOO!

  • now, i'm just going to put in my 2 worthless cents, but while jsmith5549 may be somewhat wrong, i do belive not all millers are cruel. when we bought our dog, we went to a breeder who did raise all different types of dogs for a living. the good thing that we did though, was to look at her operations. while yes, she was making a profit, she still took heavy care of all the dogs and made sure they had medical care, food, water, and playtime. i will say that all millers should be watched closely.

  • again what a job these guys and gals do!!!

    great stuff

  • jsmith (comment below) thinks we should feel sorry for puppy millers because they don't have the finances to care for the dogs... I can't imagine this level of irresponsible stupidity!!!!!???? Puppy millers should be locked in wire cages in a dark barn and made to suffer for the rest of their lives (like they do their innocent animals). GET OUT OF THE PUPPY MILL BUSINESS! Learn to make a living somehow not on the misery and suffering of innocent creatures.

  • Puppy Mills are sad stories. However people don't face reality in the situations.

    It is truely sad the puppies will live this abused life style. The puppy mills do the best they can with the finances they have to work with.

    That's difficult to hear and read for some people... But that's the truth. Not all puppy mills abuse there dogs. Majority generally care for them. Without the proper financing its impossible to care for that many dogs with no where else to turn.

  • @jsmith5549 Excuse me... you want me to feel sorry for puppy millers??? You are out of your mind. "The best they can with the finances they have?" GET OUT OF THE BUSINESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not only are you evil and cruel, but you must be very stupid.

  • @jsmith5549 If they dont have enough money to take care of the dogs then they shouldnt be breeding all of them. They are in it for the money not cuz they care

  • I just want to let you know...puppy mills are in the business for the money not animals..PLUS with the pet population problem that exists today in the US no scratch that the world the last thing we need is large scale breeding. No one forces anyone into the business or to take in an animal and if the finances are not there to take care of the animals then they shouldnt be doing it, but FYI lack of finances is no excuse for stuffing too many dogs in a cage and it really upsets me that you believe

  • It seems to me that you need to look more into what puppymills are really about before you start defending them.

  • @jsmith5549 It's real simple, if you can't afford to raise puppies in a safe healthy environment, don't get in the puppy business!!!

  • @jsmith5549

    Hahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahh­ahaaaa....Sory I have this terrible cough. My ears must be clogged too. These people take in TOO MANY dogs and put them in the CHEAPEST condition to PUMP as MANY puppies as they can out of the mother and THROW THEM ASIDE when they're "spent" for the MAXIMUM amount of MONEY that they can get. What you said was utter bull$#%. They are greedy and take in a lot of dogs for cash. They are a cash crop to them. Wake the heck up!!!!

  • @jsmith5549 if they don't hVE THE MONEY THEN THEY SHOULDN'T BE DOING IT.

  • @jsmith5549........You are DELUSIONAL.

    First of all, you have no proof for any claim you made. Second, Do you think those millers are really trying to do their best while they are kicking in a dog's head? Or what about when they beat them to death? How about when they decide to put a bunch of dogs in one area together, then dump a bag of dog food on the ground and let them fight each other for it? Do you think those employees really care??? You are not aware of the truth. You are only ignorant.

  • i hate puppy mills

  • The people that run these puppy mills, should rot in hell !!! to put it mildly.

  • @daryn1967

    I'd rather see them see what they're doing wrong, redeem themselves, and be seen in heaven. Hell is not a place for man. It's better to forgive as our Heavenly Father forgives us.

  • Please help stop puppy mills everywhere I live in Minnesota and have heard there are many here and nothing is stopping them in our state we dont even have animal protection here only dog catchers who dont care

  • Wow this is so true. Never buy a dog from a pet store. Adopt or do wat I do and go straight to a breeder who is liscenced to breed a certain type of dog.

  • Ben Stein doesn't even care about humans, why would he care about puppies?

  • You don't have to care about humans to care about dogs. It's the humans that are causing the problem.

  • A simple story, but one that everyone needs

    to see and hear. My dog was rescued from a

    place like that and he is the best dog and a total goof and loads of fun and loves to go

    places with me and sleep on my feet and dance for snackies... I'm so glad he picked me to be his buddy ;)

  • Great Video! Great Subject ! I've been rehabilitating adult puppy mill dogs sincer early 2006 - it' always enriches my life! Thanks for spreading the word! Blessings

  • Bueller.....Bueller.....Buelle­r...

  • 1st!

  • That's soooo sad.......

  • Love Ben stein. I don't always agree with the guys advice but I do own a shelter animal and it's a good message.

  • Too bad he's a nutty ass creationist!

  • Doggies!!!!!!!!!

  • This would be a great video if it weren't for that illiterate twat Ben Stein ruining it.

  • It maid me cry

  • hahahahaha

  • Wonderful video!

  • screw dogs when u compare them to monkeys

  • Right message. Wrong messenger. Ben Stein has lost his marbles over the last few years.

  • i love ben stein.

  • PETA is my fav.

  • @theasiananny, just an fyi:

    PETA has favored breed legislation laws that discriminate against pit bull breeds. They even advocated for the extermination of pit bulls. :(

    PETA does some good, but they are very iffy and hypocritical...

  • stupid puppy mill owners!

  • Awesome message, awesome video, awesome dude!

  • why hasnt anyone commented?

  • 0 comments but over 9000 views? JACKPOT!!!

  • Ben, why don't you help stop the War Criminal Mills? You supported Dubya/dick, and they started two illegal wars for profit.

    One million puppies? What about the one million dead Iraqis? What about the millions of Iraqi refugees who will never return to their homeland?

    Why do you support the blood thirsty Military Industrial Complex?

    Why do you support a fascist regime?

    If you won't help pick up the huge elephant poop mess you helped to create, then go to the park and pick up the dog poop.

  • More people need to know thou, or at lest need to know more.

  • the puppies are so small and cute. I NOW OFFICIALY HATE PEOPLE WHO DO THIS.

  • ... are people afraid to comment O_o?...i wish i could say your welcome buut i dodn't do anything =\

  • Ben Stein has forever discredited himself in my eyes by his role in Expelled.

  • that was great /watch?v=TEIA-MM6NpQ

  • To stop the supply of Puppy Mill dogs, END THE DEMAND!! DO NOT BUY ANIMALS FROM PET STORES!! The ASPCA of America estimates that 99% of all puppies in pet stores are puppy mill dogs

  • Excellent of him to speak up for dogs in puppy mills!!!

  • test

  • interessantes Video

    Sehen Sie sich das unbedingt mal an..

  • aww the puppies r soooo cute!!!!!

  • aww the r soooo cute

  • this is sad to know because im an animal lover myself even when my neighbors dogs attacks me im still gentle about it

  • These people should be put in a cage in the same conditions and left there.

  • i def support this :) great vid! i feel so bad for those puppies

  • People need to raise awareness and stop puppy mills! Owners of these mills deserve the harshest punishment available!

  • I support the HSUS, but if you do buy a dog choose a breeder who keeps the parents of the puppy as loved pets & :

    See the dog before buying, where it lives & the condition of the parents. Insist current shots & get the name of the vet that has seen the dog. Ask about the mother, how many in the litter & if any of the dogs have had problems. Insist on a contract, mine guaranteed the dog for 1 yr, so I knew she was healthy or at least make the sale subject to a vets ok.

  • Nice!

  • Good job Ben! We should stick the owners in one of those cages for a day so they can experience the grief these animals go through.

    I have already adopted 2 dogs from the local animal shelter.

  • 5/5! Ben Stein and all the organizations are doing a great job.

  • Although there is no single action greater than going vegan to help animals, this video was great, and it spoke for the wonderful character in Ben Stein.

    Animal prevention is the most compassionate way to help animals. Going vegan is simply an extention to a much bigger problem as we also have pig mills, chicken mills, and cow mills.

    I am someone that believes that both animals and people are equally important. I hope you are too.

  • thats horrible. aww

  • oh my gosh thats horrible O.o

  • It's nice to see Ben Stein doing something useful for a change.

  • We once got a puppy from a pet store. I was just about to get this rottweiler pup when she was carried in and we got her for $50. It turned out she'd never had her shots, and when we got them, she had an allergic reaction. She ended up costing us thousands of dollars and eventually someone offered to take her and get her fixed up, which would cost another chunk of money. This was a loving family, and we gave her to them. Don't buy from puppy mills.

  • ben stein is the man!

  • thank you

  • When is human cruelty going to end?

  • Their so cute

  • ADOPT ANIMALS!!!!!

  • This is great, I'm so glad somebody cares.

  • I want a poppy

  • somebody please help them stop the puppy mills here in PA. We have inspectors that are being paid off, and these animals suffer. PA is puppy mills are unacceptable. I'm embarrassed to live here when I see this....Please help the group trying there darndest to get our inspectors to do their job....we had one owner shoot all his dogs that the inspector told him to get vet care for, and he got away with it, because they were his property......how revolting...

    LKB

  • adopt a dog don't buy it

  • i think all puppy mill owners and participant should be jailed in thease same conditions ps im now abig Ben Stein fan

  • please reply

  • HELZ YES!

  • Thank you Ben Stein. Now if we can just get you to stop pushing IDiocy on public school children, you will once again become one of my favorite celebs. Puppy mills are a disaster and the Humane Society is the main beneficiary of my altruistic activity, such as it is....

  • Wow! That is a large # of puppies!!! People PLEASE! Help this innocent animals, if u thinking to buy a dog, go and check the animals they have 4 adoption, trust me there's soooo many, any shape,color, etc, etc.. If u adopt a pet, u will be saving not only money but a life 2!!

  • awwh i want a puppy now there so adorable only heartless people will be cruel to those adorable dogs

  • Makes me want to go buy a dog!

  • Why isn't anyone talking about a federal ban on puppy mills?

  • we just got a puppy

  • This is featured and it has no comments? Strange.  Nice video though.

  • Thank you for making this video Ben.

  • this video made me cry

  • I wish the Humane Society would be more effective in Wisconsin. A group (no more puppy mills) has been trying for 11 years to pass legislation, without success. Steve Kastell, a Plymouth resident (Sheboygan Co.) state representative has been the biggest opponent...saying how he keeps his own dogs in the barn all year. This backward state considers puppy mills agriculture, There are hundreds of puppy mills in Wisconsin run by scum bags , the Amish and Mennonites.

  • I do not like the suggestion that you shouldn't ever buy a dog from a respectable breeder. There is nothing wrong with breeding dogs for sale if they are treated well.

  • Been to an animal shelter lately???

  • They're not the same thing. If you think so, then you've gone to the wrong animal shelters.

  • Petstores here in Canada sell rescued animals that were strays etc. I bought a kitten that was vet checked etc. 230 and had fleas which he gave to my old cat. Both nearly died from worms also. Luckily I had a credit card and a vet who gave me a deal. Max is now three years and old Gus is now thirteen. I would NEVER buy an animal from a petstore again! Rescues or not. Who knows what these rescues are really? Go to the shelter yourself MAKE SURE!

  • Heartbreaking. There is no other way to describe this. The one cage that had all those dogs crammed into it was a horrible sight. I've owned dogs all my life. I'm by no means the best dog owner. I don't walk them every day like I should other things like that. But they are in my house 24/7 except when they go out to the bathroom in our fenced in yard. The rest of the time they rule the house.

  • Yay for Ben Stein and all Animal Rescue Workers!

  • I LOVE ANIMALS<3

  • These puppy mills exist because people want a cute little puppy from a big box type mall. when they don't want the puppy anymore they just get rid of it. It is the same with horses, everyone wants a horse or pony, right? ever have to take care of horses or feed them? Dogs are the same way, grooming, good feed, vet care. We took care of a purebred husky, the girl wanted it cause she saw it in a disney movie, a dog like this requires maintenence to do it right people live in disney fantasy land

  • thank you ben.

  • Wow, seems like someone forgot the fourth rule of raising awareness: Never use Ben Stein as a spokesman.

  • I love Ben Stein. Cruella de Vil doesn't stand a chance.

  • :( thts sad

  • i'm sorry but ben stein is a bad rep...soooooo boring

  • Adopt, don't buy.

  • thats right i hat you

    not hate

  • if ben stein thinks god is behind everything then let god deal with it

    i hat ben stein so much

    non thinking poophead

  • Ben Stein rocks out loud

  • I work at a Hotel/Daycare for dogs and cats and I think anyone that does this to any animal should be caught and abandon the same way that they abandon and treat these animal.

  • awesome :)

  • Sadly this is going on all over the world. I wish there was a list of display - where everybody could see the names and where these people had their awful businesses. To make them public known for their cruelty.

  • SPCA or reputable breeder only for me. You buy from a puppy mill and I will kill you.

  • thoughts and prayers with you.

  • Better he talks about puppy mills than about creationism...

  • Its about time a celebrity shows the horrors of puppy mills. Just think that poor mother has to keep pumping out puppies for the purpose of human greed. People need to wake up!!! Thanks Ben Stein.

  • Thank you to the people supporting this purpose. I've proudly owned and cherished adopted animals my whole life.

    These animals enrich peoples lives and serve a vital purpose in life.

  • 1st!

  • cute dogs and puppies!:)

  • I want to thank you, Sir......for making this video. You are a very intelligent and respected man and I truly believe people will listen to your advice!

  • i hope there's an organization like that here in the philippines.....dog lover too,

  • So pitiful , some are homeless / tortured ...

  • i love the human socaty too. it makes me so sad and angry that people can treat dogs like that=(

  • Thanks for Posting this vid :)

    i was about to buy NEW PUPPY . but i think ill tell my mom to adopt these poor dogs. :))

  • Wow. Good job HSUS! Those poor puppies!
