Puppy Mills

I was just looking at this website, which is a website for fighting animal cruelty. While I was on it, I noticed this article about puppy mills and read it. A puppy mill is place where they breed puppies, but they use all the money they get from it for themselves, instead of using the money to keep the dogs healthy. The breeding at puppy mills are performed without caring for the dogs, and many of them get heredity defects. Later, these dogs are often sold to pet shops. in puppy mills, many dogs are usually squished into a small, dirty cage, which is way to small for them to live in. They don't get treats, toys, exercise or grooming and their cages have wire floors that hurt their legs and paws. If you are a person who cares a lot for animals, and are maybe a vegetarian or vegan, i think this would be a good website that would interest you. The entire idea of hurting and not caring for living animals, just to get money is horrible, and i completely disagree with it. A way to fight against is, is to not buy dogs from pet store, or any dogs from somewhere that you can't see it's entire facility and meet the mother dog.
