I bought 2 of my 3 dogs 4 years ago before I had ever even heard of a puppy mill and was completely clueless about the horrible things these poor animals endure. I was told by PETLAND (of course) that they came from a local breeder. My 3rd was a rescue and all from here on out always will be as well. It truly is just about education and letting people know the reality of where a pet comes from. I adore all of my dogs and wouldn't trade them for the world, but had I know about puppy mills back then, you can bet I wouldn't have bought one. But now I know, and hopefully now more people know too. Thanks for what you do.
