  • what is sad that it is legal!

  • so she is telling us not to buy pet dogs

  • my dog gets fed better than I do. and that's how it should be, they can't tell us when they're hungry ?

  • How is this conduct even legal? These condition are worse than what you see in meat production for heaven's sake!

  • sadly i just foud out my dog is a puppy mill dog. she's had a skin disease her whole life, and she will not live past 8 years old. :/ these things are horrible and need to be put to an end.

  • @sunshinegirl0319 My cat had a skin disease but wasn't from a puppy mill. My dog comes from a registered very good breeder but has a skin disease called Lupus.

  • I have NEVER and NEVER will buy a dog or cat from mills. Adoprtion centers always have available animals to be taken home.

  • @bedtime420...my feeling exactly

  • I hate the human race, the sooner we are rid of this planet the sooner the world can get back to normal.

  • TO EVERYONE WATCHING THIS: just watching this and saying it makes you sad isnt going to help the cause. DONT EVER buy any animal from a pet store, that just supports things such as puppy mills etc. ALWAYS ADOPT or find a certified breeder. Make a donation to PETA itself to help support them, and spread the word!!!!

  • This is horrible and im crying but LETS STOP THE CRYING AND SHUT THIS DOWN ! i feel lucky that in scotland this shit is banned and we are not aloud dogs to sell in stores but i want to fight this and make sure america is the same as us !

  • Greedy people. It's disgusting.

  • NEVER!. getting a dog from a pet shop again. EVER!

  • "I will make the world a great place for everyone" Words of a president... total bullshit a true president would actually get off there lazy ass and do something

  • what is puppy mill?

  • @killlerzoo did you even watch the video?

  • These people disgust me!!!! They should be put in a small cage and treated the same way, its disgusting!!!!

  • Those puppy mills exist for ppl with consumer EGOIST mind buy and trow away...PPL STOP GETTING PURE BREED ON PET SHOP, ADOPT A HOMELESS SOUL....

  • THE GOVERMENT IS A BIG BUNCH OF STOPID CARLES PEOPLE

  • ITS WAS SO SAD ME AND MY FRIEND ARE MAKING POSTERS TO STOP PUPPY MILLS

  • I live in singapore and there is only one puppy mill and im going undder cover to see how the dogs are and to flim it and put it in a shot flim festval

  • Again, Peta, nobody cares. Dogs aren't even conscience.

  • i hate human :(

  • @kuliwuli and what are u??? -_- not all humans are bad ya know :(

  • wait, so if a veterinarian did visit that place. WHY THE FUCK DID THEY NOT CLOSE IT DOWN?!?!?

  • @ShiZno360 they cant. thats the problem. these places are completely legal. they would have no power to do anything. people need to raise awareness to try and make these places illegal to operate.

  • I got my cat from a animal shelter as a kitten the money people spend there is way less but it goes to food and toys for the animals there. The sheter lets the animals run free in the room every day so they can get exercize and it evan has a out side bit so they can get fresh air. It makes me happy that i got a SHELTER near me better than a breeding house.

  • Those poor dogs that is SOO sad it makes me cry the is sick how the owner let the dogs suffer like that how could they watch those poor dogs be like that that's SOO sad those sick people uh:(

  • I don't see why it is so hard for the owners and employees to just TREAT THEM RIGHT, it's easy! The animals feel better, and you feel better. Plus, the person who purchases the dog feels better, because they don't need to worry about disease. Until mill owners realize this I will continue adopting my dogs and volunteering at the shelter. Dogs, cats, rabbits, cows, sheep, pigs, etc. exist alongside us, so why doean't everyone treat them with respect?

  • This is a lie. I do believe that there are puppy mills, but not all bought animals are from them. ALL of the cats and dogs at my petsmart are from local families who donated them. PETA has a good intention, but I HATE how they try to make you feel so horribly guilty just to get donations.

  • Were those dogs kept in lockers!!!! Thats just SICK!!

  • makes me want to barf

  • HUMANS ARE STUPID! GOD DIDN'T MAKE ANIMALS FOR MONEY!

  • @ThetArReNcHuLa god didnt make animals at all, thi is no god.

  • Aww how cute lol

  • @fanta09 People have tried but it never works

  • Not only do these mills need to be shut down but selling animals in pet stores and shops need to be banned and deemed illegal to do so!!! Kill two birds with one stone...so to speak!!!

  • i get that puppies mills are cruel but if we dont bye them then wont they be killed if they arnt bought i love peta and thanks for doing all you can

  • this brought me to tears :'( how can people do this?!

  • @Ladiibunii16 those basterds

  • 3. I have to admit as a meat-eater, though, that it is hard to reconcile the eating of meat and the fact that I know my eating habit contributes to some animals's being painfully killed.

    The worst is the Halal butchery practices and the Kosher. One of the worst things I have ever witnessed in all my life.

  • @semasiologistics why don't you buy from a local butcher than, where animals are killed humanly?? Also the meat is much better. And the meat is local, and in the US.

  • @semasiologistics Just stop eating meat then dude you don't need it to survive, eating meat is bad for the animals, bad for the environment due to pollution, please convince others to stop don't listen to others who will tell you to eat meat.

  • @fenderstrat91 You shouldn't try to convince anyone to do anything that they don't see as necessary. They aren't going to want to do something unless they realise it themselves, and if they do, then they'll make their own mind up. PETA's downfall is how they force people to think their way, I admired them until they started trying to change people lives when they didn't want it changed.

  • 2. At the same time, however, birds are still kept in cages and various other animals's freedoms limited so radically that if animals do have any notion of happiness or volition, numerous "pets" must feel violated. To me, boycotting the entire meat industry for philosophical reasons is hypocritical if one sympathizes with the having of pets.

  • 1. I find it funny that philosophical vegetarianism boycotts the meat industry because of how painful it is to kill animals but does not then do so to the institution of pets since so many pets are through their owners treated horribly or abandoned. On the one hand, torture and cruel treatment are undermined completely but on the other, a more moderate approach is taken; namely, not being friends with assholes and always stopping unfair treatment when it is seen.

  • Man. are people so poor that they actually have to get a job here to make a living?

  • tell me abo9ut it the local shelter busted a puppy mill and we adopted one of thoose dogs that were used for breeding and we have had her for 2 or 3 years and she STILL isnt used to people she STILL runs away from them!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and when we got her they had to shave all her fur of cuz its was just so matted and she had a TON of health problems it is just soo sad!!!!!!!!

  • this is very sad why do ppl do that dont ppl care!! i guess not like really pass a law about this its not right animals have feelings too!!!!

  • why cant they like pass a law or something to stop the breeding in these mills

  • @fanta09 In places like Canada and the US, there ARE animal welfare laws in place to prevent this kind of thing from happening. Example, law states that dogs must have access to proper shelter (so not caged outside), constant access to fresh water, fed properly, have a certain amount of space (no tiny cages), etc. The trouble is ENFORCING these stipulations. Many of these places are "hidden", either no one notices, or no one cares to report it. Even if they are discovered, the laws weak...

  • Don't punish the animals, still buy them, but actually try to get these mills shut down. Even if they get the money, you can bring attention to it by alerting the authorities.

  • i got all of my dogs at the shelter yay for mee!!!

  • Save all the dogs and all... but when it comes down 2 it, this would never go away... it is not going 2 happend... exsample... boxer from puppy mill $ 300, boxer from a good responsable bredeer $800-1000... i what most people would do...

  • that sucks

  • I just cried watching this. Too sad :(

  • @DMVMsTwinkles Instead of crying lets do something to end this sick crap!

  • @DMVMsTwinkles me too

  • @DMVMsTwinkles You and everyone else can cry all you want sooner or later you might (but probably not) realise that crying doesnt change anything.

  • i bought my puppy at the mall does that mean his mom is dead because he is perfet . and he is 3 years old

  • SAVE ALL THE ANIMALS, NOT ONLY THE DOGS AND CATS. COWS ALSO LOVE, CHICKEN ALSO WANT TO HAVE FUN AND LOVE TO GOSSIP, PIGS ARE ONE OF THE SMARTEST ANIMALS ON EARTH!!!!! BE VEGETARIAN, DON`T EVER DRINK MILK, YOU NEED TO PRODUCE A INDIVIDUAL LIVING BEING TO GET THE MILK AND THERE IS NO OTHER PLACE FOR HIM TO GO OTHER THEN THE SLAUGHTERHOUSE.

  • oh my goodness this is so horrible :(

  • dont curse!!!

  • .. its the midwest what do people expect

  • Im really confused to why these places are actually running :S

  • i got mine from a shop and she truned out pretty good :)

  • @violetflame1980 the point is not that your dog "turned out pretty good," the fact is, getting your dog from a shop perpetuates these mills from treating dogs with such cruelty. Your dog's mother is probably on the brink of death with infections that slowly eat at her. She is living under conditions that even prisoners of horrific crimes don't have to endure.

  • I am going to shove one of them (a jackass that runs this place) into a fucking wire cage, embed a collar in their neck, feed them a little bit of shit, break one of their legs, let them get infected, just before they die. SLIT THEIR THROAT WITH A BUTTER KNIFE

  • why is Peta allowing this lady to say "Adopt a dog"? PETA is against pet ownership.

  • this should be illegal

  • If i were that undercover agent, I would release all the dogs, K.O. the workers and move their bodies away from the mill, then I would burn that place to the ground.

  • @thatguyyoudontfeel I think its better to make the workers and breeders live in same condition..

  • Poor dogs! why cant this just be illegal?

  • cant they just stop doing this to animals :( CANT THEY JUST TREAT THEM RIGHT ? for god sake they have feelings

  • The government needs to shut these things down.

  • and why cant she donate her money??? she has more then enough money

  • I hope every animal at this mill was take out and got proper treatment! Then the place can be burned down.

  • i give every penny i can to peta. i dont use products tested on animals. and i never will eat meat and i drink milk a dairy products that are from humane farms.

  • this is horrible i love animals and these people who sell dogs should treat them better than this! :(!!!!

  • this is so sad!!!!!

  • please visit peta.org.save a life please never buy from puppy stores

  • Damn rich people.. they have so much to give... but they r ***** greedy.

  • And I thought the Chinese were bad...

    Fucking Americans now

  • i want to own a huge farm and save 100s of poor animals!

  • awh those poor doggies D: they don't deserve this.

  • This is why i bought my beagle puppy from a bredder, ( the guy had 1 dog, had babies, and gave them to adoption and i bought one for 150$, ( the 150 was for previous puppy shots.,, i would like to know how this is legal, i thought we had a department of governmetn that prevented this stuff, i mean i would just call them up and tell them where its at, then they would be shut down and they will go to jail for atleast 5-10 years, depending on how many abused dogs, ABUSING ANIMALS IS ILLEGAL BY LAW

  • ironcity462 the celebs do donate but its still not enough just like when all the celebs donated for Haiti it still wasn't enough my point is the government is not hard on animal cruelty if you kill someone you get life in jail if you kill an animal you get probation for not owning an animal for a couple of months

  • i would apply ofr one of these jobs... to sabotage it and let the animals free! i wouldnt care if i got fired, i would have saved hundreds of lives...

  • I agree to everything she said. *weep* (yes, I slightly cried)

  • Useless suffering while puppy mill owners and Pet shops collect the big bucks. And we are doing what about it?

  • we should be allowed to do to these ppl what they do to the dogs sweet justice

  • i would so own those guys what complete evil bastards who could do that to another living thing....

  • my dog was from a puppy mill the breeder saved the parents

  • uh who is she peta can at least pay for a known celeb..........

  • I always adopt but what happens to the dogs that are already in the puppy mills? Is PETA going to rescue all 2-4 million of them???

  • Give me a M4 and some beer, and I'll get those dogs out quicker then you can say, Aunt Jemima's pancake mix.

  • so what is supposed to happen to the puppies already in the pet stores? peta can come up with some serious bullshit sometimes.

  • I bet this celeb alone has enough money to help. THey ask for our money yet just a few celebs could end this?

  • a man best friend.....-.-.......

  • How can these mills be still going?? It's ANIMAL CRUELTY! How does these places EXIST?!

  • This is sickening !!!!

    POOR POOR ANIMALS !!!

    It is a shame that this happens !!!!

  • They should shut down all puppy mills and make it illegal too do this

  • @RBLXBurntoast78 it is illegal

  • @RBLXBurntoast78 they did but it still happens.............

  • Whoever own's this puppy mill or any mill should be locked up in a cage (Jail) and let to live like these poor innocent animals do!!!

  • y isnt this pplace shut down??

  • so what do we do with those puppies??? just let them die?! your contradicting yourselves!

  • All I gotta say about people who do this are fucking sick and nrrd to be thrown in jail who do this kind of shit

  • Its the "breeders" who get my goat who know this goes on and STILL churn out puppies.....they are as bad as puppy farmers, but are disguised as caring "Champion breeders".....

  • this is so horrible. but i agree celebs could pay millions of dollars but dont who advertise PETA. so horrible.

  • this is so horrible. but i agree celebs could pay millions of dollars but dont who advertise PETA. so horrible.

  • This is sad and all but crying about it doesn't do anything.... Peta does nothing.

  • Nevermind that the pet industry is a hundred billion dollar a year industry providing hundreds of thousands of jobs around the world. Much better for a human being to starve to death and not be able to take care of his family than for a dog to spend his life being fed and taken care of, right? Most puppy mills treat their dogs much better than this! It produces a higher quality animal! What a misleading, one sided video.

  • @renfist Before I got to the end of your message I was very upset, but yes, I will agree, I know some breeders, and they love all their dogs and are selective of who they let even take then dogs home. Ones like this mill, like was said, violate some laws, and because of that, what PETA should do, is bring them to court, not just ask for my money. I will do my part by getting a dog from a rescue or shelter and love that dog and care for it, not by giving PETA money.

  • woohoo, PETA propaganda. Nothing will be done about this, ever. The demand is to great and if it got this bad I think it would be a fruitful market. Good luck protesting, it only encourages them more.

  • i hate this. i mean the cruelty to the dogs.

  • =\ My dog is from a pet shop. She is the greatest best dog. It saddens me to think where she most likly came from, but, as long as she is alive, she needed a home too.

    The industry is wrong, very wrong, but the dogs that come out of it still need love and care that is previously absent.

    Should I have just left my beautiful, wonderfull Midian to her fate? Left her behind the glass, in a box far too small? Her price had already been reduced because she was so large and no-one wanted her.

  • @lestatsluver666 I know you love your dog and you feel you "recued" her. The shelters are full of healthy dogs that need rescuing as well, and you would love them too.. What you have to understand is every time you buy a pet store/puppy mill dog you contribute to the cruelty. The only way to stop puppy farms is to stop buying them!!

  • this is just sad......

  • Ladies and Gents.

    This is life, now you might not like it, neither do I, however I can be 99% certain that out of the 62,209 views this has, it will change nothing. The demand is too great.

    This is one of those things. As much as we don't like it, we won't change it because it enriches our life.

    Its like Nike. You want to wear Nike because it looks good. What you end up buying is blood, sweat and tears from a sweat shop.

    We are a dirty race, live with it.

    Truth Hurts.

  • Why isn't the SPCA or someone coming there and shutting them down? I'm not all that familiar with cruelty laws but not getting proper treatment for the dogs with broken limbs, wounds, diseases and conditions is cruelty, isn't it? Espeacially if the owners and supposed caretakers know the animals are injured or sick and are still not doing anything about it, they should be facing criminal charges, shoudn't they???

  • How can we stop this? :,(

  • im sad! :(

  • Are not Puppy Mills illegal? Thought they were, let's get them ALL shut down!!!

  • its not about the puppies, it's the adult dogs that supply them to you. idiot.

  • pet land is a place where the puppy mills

  • ugh i hate people who do that :( grr

  • :( aww poor puppies

  • cry us a river,

  • This celeb has millions and millions of dollars.. I can give $20 and will... she can give 20 million ,,,,will she??? hmm?? All these celebs asking for money!! 3 celebs can save all these poor animals!!!! jay Leno would rather buy 3000 cars!!!

  • @ironcity462 who says the hasn't given 20 mill? she's raising awareness about a disgusting practise going on right under everyone's nises. have some respect.

  • @ironcity462 You have no idea how much money she may or may not have donated. If her video gets 100's of people to donate $20 why would you have an issue?

  • @ironcity462 that is so ture she was probley paid to do that commercial

  • @ironcity462

    UMMM....SHE HAS DONATED THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS & THOUSANDS OF HOURS TO THIS CAUSE, EDUCATE YOUR SELF BEFORE YOU RUN YOUR MOUTH....SEND YOUR 20 BUCKS, MAYB THAT WILL MAKE YOU A BETTER PERSON!

  • @kateykelly take a deep breath...so she made a mistake...

  • @kateykelly ... Grab a dictionary, 'MAYB' that will make you a better speller.

    So, maybe instead of telling him to educate himself, [or her] you should be educating yourself first. 'Thousands of hours' I doubt it. There are 730 hours in a month... I doubt she spent 24/7 on this case without sleeping for 5 and a half months.

  • @ironcity462

    idiot. She obviously gives money to the cause, and if you give $20 dollars than who knows how many other people will give $20.

  • why peoples toture animal just for money

  • this is like a never-ending dog holocaust.

  • It's places like puppy mills that are responsible for continuing to breed health problems (like a propensity for cancer, vWBD, hip displaysia, etc.) into certain dog breeds, creating serious, perpetuating problems down the road. Anyone who can treat an animal like that is sick.

  • my dog is a stud pup from a puppy mill he has serious mental problems.

  • Its so horrible... Peoples dont know what kind of life the dogs in there.

  • This is so wrong,let the dogs free,i have no words for this,i love allod of animals,to bad,the people must be arrested!!

  • what's not mentioned is that because of the poor breeding conditions, these "purebred" puppies are sometimes born with chronic health problems. i def. advocate adopting from shelters. i found both of my dogs roaming the streets as puppies! if you MUST have a purebred, demand to see the parents and where the dogs are raised!!! that's what you pay all that money for! not for a sick abused dog :(

  • I really liked how you touched the surfaceo of yet another problem with buying dogs in petshops, poor health. So many people are not only ignorant of puppy mills but also of the affects of them on their future pets, etc.

    I'd love to write a 'how to' book on buying puppies or kittens. The first rule would be: DON'T BUY A PUPPY OR KITTEN. Problem solved. =p

  • but if you dont buy the puppies then they spend their lives in another cage and are eventually killed or sent back to the puppy mill what should you do?!?! i hate puppy mills :(

  • you're right, they will be euthanized ...but the pet shop lost money. Regardless an animal will die, one in the pet shop or one in the pound. if we can get enough people to boycott buying from pet shops they will not make money and they will close. yes it will be a loss as the animals may lose their lives, but it is for a greater cause. when the demand goes away, the need for puppy mills will as well.

  • who's to say that the puppy mill show was supplying a pet show? the large amounts of vague information mean that the only real information was the video and the diseases shown. give me a real link between a petshop and a puppy mill and i will personally run them outta business.

  • midwest?....rain,sun,snow,fall­? Nebraska maybe? idk..

  • she should let all the dogs out and let them fuck up the people that put them in there

  • this is so sick.

  • its horrible....and too many people do not understand that there are plenty of needy dogs in shelters

  • @stephbrazilianlov I completey agree, no NOT support breeders in ANY trade - they are plenty of animals at your local shelters ans rescue centers looking for forever homes. DO NOT support this trade.

  • it is heart breaking to watch this

  • Thats totally messed up. We're supposed to treat animals with respect and love. Those people should experiance what those dogs are having. We need to stop this no matter what.

  • I'm going to donate. This needs to be changed

  • im against dog mills but I dont like her lol

  • HappyHappyCatCat , they post stupid videos on youtube and din't do anything physically cuz they dun have the fund to do it ==''

  • they should make a big deal about it and it is something to make a big deal out of, this makes me sick to see dogs treated this way, they dont deserve it, they havent done anything to deserve to be like this everyday of there lives, its not right and if the government doesnt do something, we should..

  • theres a reason the human species is the dominant species, animals have no rights they are SPEECHLESS and we as humans have evolved and fought to become the superior race. PETA blows everything out of proportion and makes a big deal out of nothing

  • airplanegy48, letd rip your vocal cords out, make you speechless make your own bed your washroom nowhere to clean yourself and give you infections and injuries but no medical cage, take away your kids and say your a speech less motherfucker and you have no rights. WE are a dominant species, not you holmes you aint human your a pussy that can only say shit behind the computer, try makin that comment public and see if you dont get your face cut open like the joker.

  • Are you serious????

    You THINK because your superior that you have more rights??

    Where were you raised?

    You and people like you are the reason why America and the world is messed up.

    Superior to humans is how many war's you win or living creatures you torture.

    So many people believe that to be superior you have to be ruthless, and show no sympathy or mercy.

    Why can't humans use the good, compassionate, loving sides of themselves to be superior.

  • I'd love to see you go through this... and not feel compassion for any other creature that might have to endure this. Karma's a B*T*H.

    Ignorance is bliss in your case.

  • i sincerely hope you are one of these dogs in your next life

  • bitch i hope they put u in

    a cage!!!!! c how u feel.

    i'm sure u will freakin

    enjoy living in ur own

    shit & eating maggots.

    >:O

  • Animals have rights but ur right they cant speak SO WE NEED TO SPEAK FOR THEM! I bet u also think they don't have feeling well guess what THEY DO! How would u like to be kept in a cage, ignored, starved!

  • I SERIOUSLY hope you aren't trying to be intelligent by saying that. FYI there are HUNDREDS of stories of dog's saving human lives. They're pain is not beneath us. Pain and suffering is equal in every species. I may not agree with Peta on everything, but I do agree with them on that.

    and btw by your logic the abuse of a mute childs is justifiable because she or he is SPEECHLESS. Seriously its called a brain maybe you should get one. Now.

  • @airplanegy49

    You bastard...superior race? There is absolutely NOTHING superior about your stupidity and ruthlessness. Cold blooded bastard..lets lock you up in solitary confinment forever...I'd laugh at your insanity. And then, we would truely see how "superior" of a race you are. You worthless piece of nothing, you didnt deserve to be born...what a wretched waste of mass you are. So go ahead, prove yourself superior, lock yourself up forever and I'd love to see how you turn out.

  • chill out dude. when was the last time u got laid?

  • Something Should Be Done! Puppy Mill Owners Are Bastards!

  • PeTA need to physcially get out there and -do- something about it, not just protest and all that shit.

  • I don't have anything against puppy mills, just that they always treat the dogs so unfairly. If the dogs were given proper veterinary care and maybe *SHOCK* even love, then I wouldn't have much of a problem with the puppy business. These things are just sick. I wouldn't be able to live with myself.

  • well, puppy mills= inhumane. puppy mills will never get better. who can take care of 50-1000 animals? No one. not even 20 people. puppy mills are puppy mills. a breeder who takes care of their animals is not a puppy mill runner. remember, puppy mills are puppy mills

  • who kills puppies????

  • Why is the world so cruel !

    It doesn't surprise me anymore when god punishes us with natural disasters

  • WTF?!! what is wrong with people these days?!! I thought animal cruelty was ILLEGAL... WHERE THE FUCK IS THE SPCA?!! isn't that their damn job?!!!! how are people getting away with this... it's ridiculous!!!!!!

  • this fucking discusting! it makes me sick to think that those dogs are constantly stressed every second of their life. But wtf can we do its upto the government and they dont give a shit because to a lot of people animals are nothing
