:bump: I just showed this video to my mom who is here visiting, so she could see what puppy mills are like. She had no idea. Please keep educating people on this!

Lisa, you just read my mind!! I swear I was going to post about this very same topic. We have a lot of new members and I feel this is something that needs to be talked about so that our visitors that are thinking of purchasing an EB or any type of breed learn the horrendous conditions and the health and behavioral problems this poor puppies have. No creature should go through this. DO NOT BUY YOUR FUTURE PUPPIE AT PET STORES!!!!!!

A client told me this morning that a new pet store has opened in Strongsville Mall and it is full of English Bulldogs. He then went on to tell me I should go and take a look! I had to tell him that they undoubtedly came from a puppy mill. His argument back was that although puppy mills are wrong, these puppies are innocent. It's difficult to have to explain that these babies may be innocent but by buying one and taking it home you are supporting and encouraging these places !!

WOW My Rocky is from a pet store!!!!!!! :( Had NO clue about this!!! oh this is so sad!

Education is the key, spread the word! It will help stop these puppy mills. I have also purchased from a pet store, and even worse-- an importer-- but I was not educated. People don't know unless they learn. Don't feel bad at all, but now that you know you can educate others :)
