New Baby!!!!

[mr.chiwawa]

I live on the farm, my family used to breed dogs, we never had anything close to 30 dogs!!! Even if she bred her own dogs, she can still be a puppy mill. I don't even think you know what a puppy mill is. You can't prove the pup is going to be healthy when the parents don't even have a genetic testing done.

I'd have to agree that this wonderful "breeder" has all the earmarks of a puppy mill. So much for the idea of checking breeders out through phone conversations. At least it sounds like the dogs are pretty well taken care of other than being bred to death.

However, what's done is done! And little Ollie has found a wonderful loving home where he will be well cared for. All we can do now is hope that he is healthy and that all the other pups in those bins are also healthy and are as lucky as Ollie was in finding a great home rather than be kept as breeding stock.

LADIES LADIES LADIES.....MUST I REALLY GO DOWN THIS ROAD AGAIN ESPICALLY SOO CLOSE TO CHRISTMAS? BUT I SUPPOSE I WILL WHERE AS YOU MUST RAIN ON JUNES PARADE. DID YOU SPEND YOUR MONEY ON THE PUPPY?...NO! ARE YOU GOING TO PAY FOR ANY OF THE VET BILLS REGARDLESS OF WEATHER ITS HEALTHLY OR NOT?...NO!!! SO WHY DO YOU CARE?...DO YOU HAVE TO PAY TO FEED IT?...NO IN THE BOOK OF THE BOTH OF YOU THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A "REPITUABLE" BREEDER AND IT SEEMS AS IF THE ONLY WAY SOMEONE CAN GET AN A++ IN YOUR BOOK IS IF YOU ADOPT FORM A SHELTER WHICH STILL HAS NO HEALTH GRANETEES. SO I GUESS MY QUESTION TO YOU WHICH YOU WONT ANSWER BUT WILL SKIRT AROUND IS WHY DO YOU CARE SOOO MUCH WHAT ANOTHER PERSON DOES WITH THERE MONEY?.....THIS FEED WAS SUPPOSED TO BE POSITVE AND SUPPORTIVE OF JUNES AND HER NEW PUPPY WEATHER SHE GOT IT FROM A SHELTER OR FROM MARS. SOO PLEASE BACK OFF AND LET WHATS BE BE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh And I Almost Forgot Flatcoat Junes Isnt As Stupid As You May Think She Is Well Aware Of What A Puppy Mill Is. And Your Were Kind Of Rude In A Witchy Kind Of Way To Imply Otherwise. :d

Mr. Chiwawa, you're being pretty rude & condescending. Flatcoat & Applesmom showed their concern in a very civil way. This IS a public forum, and people are entitled to their own polite opinions without being berated by you, thanks. People who are involved in rescue and really involved in their particular breed (showing, rescuing, breeding responsibly) DO have to clean up after the messes that mills & BYB's leave... don't think that buying one puppy doesn't create a ripple affect. It does. A breeder who does health testing & shows the dog & strives to actually improve their breed is NOT impossible to find, it's actually pretty easy with most breeds. Just stop by a show or trial, or talk to a breed club & they're right there!

I agree that with 30+ Pugs & 3 litters at one time, those are the stats of a miller, not a "hobby breeder". Hobby breeders have a few dogs & breed minimally. A puppy mill does not have to have sick dogs in tiny cages to be a mill. The idea of a puppy mill is to pump out pups from untested/unshown "pet quality" parents with the goal of making money being #1. However, it is great that the dogs are being well cared for.

Congrats on your puppy. =] I'm glad he's healthy & happy and he's in a loving home.
