I'm so happy that PJ's pet stores stopped 'selling' puppies. It was one of the most depressing things to see ever. Dingle is so cute, and looks so happy!!
All of you who say these puppies deserve a home are evidently forgetting the cages of breeder dogs left at the mill. Once past breeding age they are killed. Many NEVER see a blue sky or walk on grass.
@POKERPRONJWSOP All dogs do deserve a home, but they don't deserve a "home" where they are kept in poor conditions and bred constantly to supply Hunte and pet stores.
By buying from the pet store (and indirectly Hunte) I contributed to puppy mills... and therefore the suffering of dogs. That makes me feel sick.

You video really hit home for me. I to, just bought mu Welsh Terrier fro a Petland store. His papers say "The Hunte Co." on the bottom. I researched, and discovered after he came home with kennel cough that he was from a puppy mill. I spent a lot for him, and it all went to SUPPORT a puppy mill!! We love out dog,Bently so much. I also believe, that if we wouldn't have gotten him, what would they have done with him... ? Killed him
I too have a dog that most likely came from a puppy mill in MO. We were suckered by PETLAND. Please do not support their business. Their Puppies all come from Hunte corp. Lets stop PETLAND and SHUT THEM DOWN!
Your story just brought tears to my eyes. Just 2 weeks ago I fell in love, and bought a beautifull Pom from a pet store. My Lexie died just 10 days after I bought her. They guessed it was parvo. I started looking online her breeder info, Hunte. I couldnt believe my eyes. Be happy cause unlike me, you were able to save Dingle. My Lexie died just when she started to receive some real love.
that sucks hes a puppy mill dog , but hes the love of your life too. So if i were you i'd feel guilty , cause his spot was replaced , but you saved him and he'll always cherice your empathy
she didn't say that she wishes she ever bought him, she said that she feels guilty for contributing to a horrible business. she loves her dog regardless, she doesn't resent him.
Hey ... You gave love 7 you got love. As far as the Pet store or the Mill ?? The are coming to a close. But the love you and your fur baby will live on !! I just adopted a puppy mill pom. We have some things to overcome. But how rewarding to feel I have gained the trust of this frightful soul.
I just stumbed on this I looked up The Hunte Corp. The bad thing is I worked at the Hunte corp. I was a vet tech then became a supervisor in the hospital. You don't really want to know what goes on there. It is sad and I am happy I got out of there. I worked there cause I love animals. I could give you so many name's of people that work there still and there e-mail it is sad that they buy from puppy mills. I tried to turn one lady in and they never did a thing. Good video.
Kudos to you...do not feel guilty - look at the reason you got him. Had someone else bought him, rather than pay for his operation, they may have put him down or dropped him off in a rural area. You saved him.
BTW...I'm a cat person and always get my pets at the SPCA or rescue society :)
You did an awesome thing and dinglehopper is lucky to have found you. I hate to see the puppies in the stores. I want to open the cages and let them all free, it makes my stomach turn. I hope some day there will be no more puppies or kittens in pet stores.
GOOD for you! the world needs more people like you speaking out for those who don't speak for themselves. DAMN pet stores that still sell pets. in addition: Beware of other major chains that don't sell dogs & can't but co-own other chains that do. One major one that starts with "S" rhimes with UPER and ends with Pet is one of them!

While my dog is "priceless" in one sense, the price tag attached to his vet bills is $10,000 and climbing.
All dogs do deserve a home, but they don't deserve a "home" where they are kept in poor conditions and bred constantly to supply Hunte and pet stores.

I'm glad that I have Dingle and I would never give him up... I just wish that he never came from (and therefore I supported) a puppy mill
