Millstone Examiner: Buy Pets From a Reputable Source this Season
Filed under: Uncategorized - December 3, 2008
People need to know that when they purchase puppies over the Internet, through newspaper ads or at pet stores, they are often unknowingly supporting a puppy mill. Puppy mills are inhuman breeding facilities that produce puppies in large numbers. They are designed to maximize profits and commonly disregard the physical, social and emotional health of the dogs. The breeding dogs at puppy mills live their entire lives in cages and the poor conditions cause puppies to have more physical and behavioral problems than dogs from good sources. To find a puppy from a reputable source, visit your local animal shelter or find a reputable breeder and visit their premises. Readers can look up shelters and breed rescue groups at www.petfinder.org and www.pets911.com.
