Is This the Sweet Beginning You Pictured?

What is a puppy mill? Best Friends says "A puppy mill is any breeding operation that raises dogs for profit." Puppy mills are also known as commercial breeders. They are licensed to sell puppies wholesale to brokers and pet stores. Being one of the thousands of USDA licensed kennels does not mean the puppies are healthy or of quality. It means they came from puppy factories regulated by the US Department of Agriculture, just  like those for chickens or cows.

Following are photos of breeding females in USDA regulated kennels which meet or exceed USDA standards. These are the "quality USDA breeders" the pet stores brag about.

THESE ARE THE MOTHERS THE PET STORE PUPPIES LEFT BEHIND.

If you love dogs, you owe it to them to not support puppy mills.
Never buy a puppy unless you personally see
the kennel and mother dog .
It's as simple as that.
