Some things on the site are definitely wrong!!!!!!!
But I'd would like to say not all breeders are bad.
We (meaning my family) show/raise/train Miniature Poodles; we have a litter once every 3-6 years. We breed only when we are looking for a puppy to keep for ourselves (usually to show); and we don't do repeat breedings until after the puppies from the first litter have grown up and have had all genetic testing done. If something crops up for some reason we don't want it to happen again.
What I'm trying to say is that just because someone breeds dogs doesn't make them a bad person and even if there are puppy millers on that site doesn't mean that everyone who visits and/or posts there is a puppy mill. I myself have never been to one of those forums before but I do know other reputable breeders who have and try to educate those breeding "just cuz".
As with everything it's always the bad ones that give everyone else a bad name.
Edited to remove a lot of rambling.
