Great news Susan! It's nice to see that your efforts really did make a difference, and with this blog, who knows how many more dog's lives will be changed for the better!
Hey Susan, kudos to you and your friends Ed and Liz. These puppy mills are horrible. Best wishes to Max and JJ, I'm sure they'll be best friends for a long time.
Susan, It is so sad that there are still breeders without conscience. Those poor little darlins are so lucky you came their way. You're an angel!
I have been in your shoes, and then some! The puppy mill situation in eastern Pennsyvania is sad, unfortunately. Please visit www.awarenessday.org and plan to attend their annual puppy mill march against the millers! We attend every year, ever since my little guy was bought from a puppy mill. I reported him as well, and he's had numerous charges against him (most recently this past November) but has still not been shut down completely. I'm sure I've posted a blog or two about my experiences, just as you have. It's important to keep people educated about where puppies come from. Okay, off my soap box now. Enjoy your new little guy ~ he is a cutie!
Good for you Susan. It is appalling to see these mills. I am glad you were able to help in stopping one of them. Maggy Moo will find a good home and JJ is adorable. I see he has his leash in this pic, I am thinking of putting one leash by each door but I bet they will all end up together since no one comes in the same door that they went out of here.
Susan,
From one dog lover to another I say thank you for getting involved and making a difference. Thank you for the update on Maggie Moo too.

Susan - any puppy (or baby) picture is a great puppy (or baby, or kitten) picture. Kudo's to you and your friend for getting this taken care of. Glad to hear Max's heart is healing.
Susan...
What a wonderful thing you did for those innocent animals. I went with a friend last week as she adopted a dog that was confiscated from another mass surrender of animals. Her Kaycee will have a great life now, thanks to someone else that also did the right thing!
Susan, that is great news, I am glad that you stepped up and did the right thing!
It seems like we cant go a couple months up here without someone getting raided for the dog mills they are running. Seems like people think they can fly under the radar...
When we adopted our Zoey I did a lot of research first, because I was worried about puppy mills and of course wanted to get a healthy puppy. I avoided all pet stores (who typically buy from puppy mills) and conducted extensive interviews of the breeders (as well as visiting the breeder in person and insisting on seeing where all the dogs were kept). Unfortunately, many people decide they want a puppy and they need it right now, and they will to to a pet store or go online and just pick the cutest puppy without doing any research first. This type of behavior unfortunately supports puppy mill activity.
I have many people to thank for your kind comments. Let me, just this once, say thank you to all of you at once. Your friendship and support during the time I have been on Active Rain is nothing short of a blessing to me. I am proud to call all of you friends.
Special thanks to Carol Araneo-Mayer, would was the person who answered my email to the website to stop puppy mills. Carol gave me the toll free number that enabled me to help Maggie and the other dogs.
Friends, thank you. xxoo
Susan, I've read and heard so much about the puppy mills and am blessed to have never seen one. I think any person that would mistreat a helpless animal ought to be punished much more severely than a fine or a warning.
Let's put that person in his own cage and make him stand in his excrement and let him drink a little poison, his choice of course, since he's starving to death! Ok you get my point.
I am sooooo proud of you for pursuing this! Yea Susan! You just saved many lives and hopefully will change the future for others!!!
Yea Susan, you are my hero today! Later in the rain~Deb
Susan...
Congratulations. This post has been selected as a feature in the group "Whacked!!!"
Deb, thank you. I'm not sure I am a hero, but I am so glad that I stood up and something got done. xxoo
Richard... you are wonderful! Thank you for the honor! xxoo
It is amazing how people who claim to love animals can treat them just to make a dollar. I'm glad you did something and I'm glad it worked and shut this place down and saved 17 pets from further cruelty.
When we got our dog soon to be 17...we did lots of research to make sure the breeder was reputable. We made sure the studding was done every other cycle. As you know we still have Roscoe but time will tell how much longer he will be with us....obviously health was not an issue but old age is not setting in. We checked puppy mills and they aren't the best place to get dogs.....we went right to a breeder in CT and drove 5 hours to get him.
Neal, I have been thinking a lot about you and Roscoe since I got JJ. I hope he lives another 17 years for you. xxoo
Todd, thank you. Cat and dogs, especially dogs, are so eager to please and only want to be loved. It's so sad to think that some go through their entire lives in such misery.
Susan, I am glad you did the right thing. If everyone stands up for what is right we all make this world a better place!
As a "dog person" and owner of pure bred dogs for over 35 years, I hope this story helps to send the message far and wide that NO ONE should ever buy a puppy from a breeder that has a "kennel" situation or from a pet store ( NEVER NEVER !!!! ).. If a breeder has lots and lots of dogs, chances are they are only in it for the $$$$,..These dogs are not pets,, they are livestock and are kept as such..
. Most of the top quality pets are bred by people who are experts in a particular breed and they breed few litters, often having waiting lists for their pups and raising them as members of the family.
As was said in a previous post,, DO YOUR RESEARCH and be prepared to wait for the right pet. When you bring that little baby home, you need to plan on taking care of that precious being for upwards of ten years... ( My oldest is now 15 !!! ).. The decision to add a dog to your household should never be done on a whim...
