Thinking that "there will always be puppy mills" is defeatist. Did folks listen when "people" said "women will never get the vote?" Did folks listen when "people" said "blacks aren't human beings?" No. They faought to change the prevailing attitude. We can do the same.
Well said once again Karen!

I for one will never purchase a puppy (or any other animal besides fish occassionally) from a pet store.
I think one person CAN make a difference, and who knows that one person may be you.
