Puppies for sale! Are you looking for a puppy to bring home?
Did you do a google search and find a thousand websites with cute cuddly puppies running in a field of flowers? Did that website impress you? They had pictures of the family holding the puppies and sometimes they had the puppies sitting on velvet blankets. They must be really loving and caring people. And oh look, you can just give them a visa number, pick out the dog and they will have it shipped to you! Wow!
***CONSUMER FRAUD***DON'T BUY THE LIE***
The pretty pictures are a lie. There are no fields of flowers or velvet blankets. The dogs come from cruel inhumane puppy mills. All these dogs know are wire cages and deplorable living conditions. They are NEVER LET OUT OF THE CAGE. Imagine living your entire life in a cage. Never touching grass. Never being held. Sometimes they never see the sun if they are kept in a barn or shed. Sometimes they are left out in the weather all year with cages stacked on top of each other. They are living in their feces, they have sores and wounds with no vet care whatsoever.
No reputable breeder would ever sell their puppies over the internet or in pet stores. If you see a dog advertised "for sale" anywhere; on the internet, in a pet store, or in your local newspaper, ask to visit the parents of the "puppy for sale". If they refuse to let you meet the parents, then you know they run a puppy mill. Over 4 million dogs are put down in our shelters every year and a lot of these dogs are pure breeds. Be a hero and save a life. Go to your local shelter or you can visit www.petfinder.com.
