Reading the story in the first link, I didn't look at the others after that, literally made me nauseous. It's hard to imagine a person could do that to any living creature and I hate the fact that animal abuse laws have not been updated and therefore do not give out as harsh of punishments as they should.
Heartland dog auction 12/15/2012

I came across this site when googling to find out if any rescues will be at this auction. I plan on going and bidding on a few pugs (one mill is having a breed sellout) and I want to be sure I don't bid against any rescues. I appreciate any help you might give me in putting me in touch with rescues. (I have been to many of these auctions and have rescued and found good homes for over a hundred pugs. (Also labs, pomeranians, dachshunds, and frenchies but mostly pugs.) I just haven't been in over two years so I've fallen out of touch and I lost all email contacts when my old laptop crashed.)

There is a Yahoo Group that you should join and it is called Auction Dog Rescue. There are several rescues that will be going to this auction and it is important that rescues do not bid against each other as all this does is make the prices higher!

Thank you Jennifer. Your thread on the june auction was the one I saw when googling for rescues. I've been trying to contact rescues so that I won't be bidding against them. I'm trying to join that yahoo group. Thanks for your help.

Thank you Jennifer. It was your post I saw about the auction in June when I was googling to try and find rescues so that I did not bid against them. I'm trying to join yahoo and this group. Thanks again.

Thank you Jennifer. It was your post about the June auction that I saw when I was googling looking for rescues who might be going so that I would not bid against them. I joined yahoo and filled out the form to join the rescue group so hopefully that will work out. Thanks again for your time and help.
