    I hope and pray that you're successful, Donna. Just remember, no one looks good in those orange jumpsuits.
    Blessings,

    I doubt they'll talk to any "potential buyers" if there are people protesting outside and the media around. You'd better go ahead of time and have a lawyer on speed-dial, just in case.

    I got there first and went in, posing as a buyer. There were two kiddie pools that had chihuahua puppies in it and another pool had shih tzu, and some other kind of puppies.

    I told this ugly *** trailer trash guy I was looking for a puppy for my husband for Christmas. I noticed that one of the chihuahua puppies was lethargic and laying curled up in a large bowl. I asked him what was wrong with it and he said "Oh, it's shy." Shy my @$$!! She nuzzled up to my neck and I could tell she felt very warm, like she was running a fever. I then made a "pretend" call to my "non-existent" husband and told the guy we'd be back tomorrow to check the puppies out. I was so heartbroken to have to leave that one little baby there. They were selling them for $550. The papers they supposedly had were from the CKC (Continental Kennel Club) which is a bogus club that anyone can set up. When I asked if I could see the parents of the puppies, I was told they weren't on site (no they were in South Carolina).

    So, out I went. Waited for all the ladies to arrive with the signs and we were out there for over 4 hours!!! In the freezing cold. My body aches so bad right now.

    For the most part, we got 95% support with honks of the horn and the thumbs up. We also had at least 5 people come up to us and tell us horror stories about buying from these jerks and their dogs dying. One man stopped and had the sweetest little pekinese puppy. She was adorable. He bought her a couple of weeks before. I said, "So she's healthy??" He said, "Yes, except for a cough." We told him that it was kennel cough and he needed to get her to a vet to be checked out. He thanks us and said he was heading to the vet right then and there.

    Then this girl comes screeching up in her car. Turns out to be the owner's son's girlfriend. She started screaming and yelling asking why we were trying to ruin their business. We all started in on her, telling her that everytime they sell a puppy mill puppy, a shelter dog dies. The girl, with all her piercings and tattoos was screaming at us telling us we didn't know we were talking about, that the puppies did come from down south and we weren't there so we didn't know what we were talking about. There was absolutely no reasoning with her. She got in her car and sped off. IDIOTS!!!!

    I was going to stay up and watch Cops but I'm too darn tired!!!

    Thanks Laura. We've decided to go back again today. Everyday that we're there puts a crimp in their business. I feel so bad about that little lethargic puppy. I hope they don't drown it the way they do the others when they're sick.
