Personally, I'm sickened by people who buy their dogs from puppy mills. That just supports and promotes the cruelest of all treatments of dogs. And usually they don't get a quick and humane death either. Sadly, my Childperson is a repeat offender (purchaser). Even after paying out the ass to buy them and then paying even more in vet bills over the years because of all the nasty problems that have been "purebred" into them. She still doesn't get it. And for the record, she doesn't eat meat. The two are obviously not connected.
Where are we going and why am I in this hand basket?
