Breed, Breed, Breed
Puppy mill are huge commercial dog breeding operations that puts profit over the well being of the dogs they are breeding. It’s pure “breed, breed, breed”.
These puppies are usually sold to pet shops – mostly through a broker, or middleman – and sold as young as eight weeks. Their birth records are mostly falsified. Just “breed, breed, breed”.
These mills usually keep these poor dogs in overcrowded and unsanitary cages, without adequate vet care, food, water and socialization. No toys, no exercise, and very little human interaction, just breed, breed, breed.
In order to maximize profits, female dogs are bred at every opportunity with little to no recovery time between litters. It’s all about “breed, breed, breed”.

- Adopt, rather than buy.
- Buy only from a reputable pet store or breeder.
- Demand laws that ban illegal breeders, and license all breeders and pet storesWe must end this vicious cycle of “breed, breed, breed”.
