I don't want the dogs to die as much as u do but i have a question. if we shouldn't buy them from a pet store or from an add because of this. where should we buy them??

[Timbellemia]

Only buy a puppy from a good reputable breeder. Contact breed club to see if there are any in your area. Make sure you see the mother and surroundings your puppy has been brought up in. Ask plenty of questions and make sure puppy has been health tested by vet. Also a good reputable breeder will ask questions, give advice and want to make sure puppies go to good loving homes. Never agree to meet a breeder in a layby or service station to collect your puppy.

True.We got Alex from a private home with children.Very few dogs are lucky in the world,if we look around,there're still lots of abuses and killings.I don't wear furcoats,it's not necessary,I'm a vegan and a member of an animal rescue society too,but a handful of people can't change the world.

I feel so sad for all the poor animals that are abused. I know we can't change the world but we can try to help make more people realise the reasons why not to buy puppies from pet stores, adverts, etc and if it stops a few more people from buying this way then it's worth it.

Dear Timbellemia,this is so sad,I can't see it twice..

[Timbellemia]

I'm so sorry alexthebullo (((hugs))) It's heartbreaking, I know. We just try to make people aware of the terrible plight of commercial bred puppy farm breeding dogs and the squalor they live in all their lives. If people didn't buy puppies from commercial outlets then there wouldn't be the market for them. Far better to go to a good reputable breeder or rescue centre.

this is horrible i know it happens all over the world but i just cant believe that people put animals through this for money. these people should be shot and left to rott! i wish there was something i could do for these dogs. i work at breeding kennels where the dogs are loved and properly looked after, its not hard at all.

@libover30 I agree adopt your next dog, puppy ,cat and/or kitten from your local animal shelter. That way a life will be saved. Please adopt until there are no more left to adopt do not buy from a breeder.

[libover30]

Don't buy any poor dog, you need to go to the shelters and adopt. Where do you think these dogs will end up if you don't? DEAD! The dog that you purchase means a dog will die at the shelter. The shelters are overrun with dogs and cats that people do not take care of and do not live up to their responsibilities. The dogs and cats do not deserve this, and this video shows that the people who run these puppy mills, they need to be put in jail. This is nothing short of evil!

This is so sad that I am crying as I watch this and I am 50 years old. I can't

imagine any animal alive being treated like this. This is really sad. I have a cat

and can't for a minute think of doing these things to him. I also love dogs and they

are more responsive than cats but this is sad. I wish I could help somehow. Dogs

can be so playful but these animals don't have a home. Thank you.

@poney555 You don't "BUY", you adopt from a shelter. There are millions of available animals just waiting to adopted!

[katelynn1900]

There are thousands of dogs killed every day all over the world because they are unwanted, yet there are thousands bred every day all over the world because people want to buy them.....

As a rescuer of pound dogs, my wish is for licensing on all dog ownership & breeding. Every human should be held accountable for their dog(s). This throw away society must be stopped & the only place for puppy farms should be in history books.
