I feel bad about the puppies and me since I bought a puppy from a pet store (by mistake) and he got sick as soon as we reached home so I am willing to help the other puppies :)

i dont think its your faultdont those puppies deserve chance too?

[lalabkohoney]

this video breaks my heart over again

[tdawwg5]

Great video!

My main goal in life is to become a lawyer, and make puppy mills in my state illegal it does't seem likley, but i am going to do anything i can to make it possible. The horrible thing is that if you have ever bought a puppy from almost any pet store, you have supported puppy mills. You should always adopt from a shelter like the Humane Society

[Dellaruth]

Awful. I couldn't watch the whole thing.  Should be prohibited by law.

Sadly, it's not just the puppymill states that have this problem. We had a puppymill bust in Mount Pleasant Michigan not too long ago. Also, we have idiots that sell puppies out of cars all over that town. I am 100% sure those folks are in on this.

I've been wanting to be a vet when I'm older since I can remember. These past few years though, I want to also open an animal shelter. (This is Hannah.... or raiseanimalawareness....)

I live in Lancaster county Pa

and we have so many puppy mills here.

Peeple come here to visit from far away and

can get a dog for cheap from the Amish

but they ahve no clue how the dogs are

kept!

[awarenessdaytributes]

I know...I live like 35 min. from lancaster. It's so sneaky what the Amish can hide, and as for the puppy buyers, they have no clue what goes on behind closed doors. It's such a shame.

Are you attending puppy mill awareness day this september in lancaster?

[SupraJulie]

I get tired of the generalization that puppy mills are all owned by the Amish, and that all Amish are irresponsible dog breeders. I live in Lancaster and when I was looking for a dog I went to many breeders, the only puppy mill I ended up was not owned by Amish, and I saw several Amish and Mennonite breeders who were all, what I would call responsible (I was able to see mom and dad, they were kept in the house, and they only had one breed of dog). I ended up getting my dog from an Amish family.

[SupraJulie]

You did not read my post very well. I didn't say that life in a small cage was ok. All I said that not all of the Amish and Mennonites who breed dogs run puppy mills. The Amish family I got my dog from kept their dog in the house with the family. She was a family pet, and that was not unusual. The only puppy mill I ended up seeing wasn't owned by Amish at all.

@Trisa1 I have heard about that.They breed those expensive breeds and also hear they are not well cared for and breed them to death...

[Sexxyy99]

Why are this not against the law? I mean this is animal cruelty. I am so sorry for everything these puppies go through

[awarenessdaytributes]

This is animal cruelty. You are right. The problem is that the USDA inspects the kennels and as long as they abide by the rules they can be in business. Also, many of the mills in OH, PA, and other Amish communities are not registered. Their dogs are hidden in barns and debarked so no one knows they exist. It's all a very undercover operation. These puppies and adult dogs go through things that we cannot even imagine. That's why we must step in. Thanks for your comment.

@Sexxyy99

Please write to MICHAEL MOORE and ask him to make a film about this.

[ramjuarez]

if any one told me they were happy about puppy mills to my face i would attack them!1

[dramahotbabe]

First I would sue them and call PETA for a 100000000 dollar sue for abusethen Id take em all

[FlyJenGirl]

All puppy mills need to be shut down and we use shelters!

[msrret]

People need to stop buying animals from mill breeders and pets stores. People need to be encouraged to adopt from shelters. This is not just puppies but everything. If you think it is bad for dogs, just multiply the misery and change the word to "BUNNY". It's all sick.

[militaryproductions]

hey dude you helping me out a lot and opening my eyes i hope we can be friends

[msrret]

Not to worry. I am not into wars in hyperspace. I just have a point of view I want to share and educate people to animal welfare whenever possible.

[militaryproductions]

thanks a lot Mog Troll is B-E-A-uitful

[Y4GET2005]

I would take them all.....too bad we live in a insane world

[awarenessdaytributes]

Our world is really insane. I would take them all too, but people just want the puppies in the pet stores, so these dogs will be in these cages forever. It's really upsetting but true.
