A Chance to Speak Out About BYB's and Mills

Off Topic
  • tashaT

    This is a PERFECT opportunity to communicate the horrors of BYB's and puppy mills. This is a great group of people that have a lot to say about this topic. Unfortunately most of the time dog forums are our only venue. Now we can give our opinions and tell our stories where people who don't know will see them.

    PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE post. If we can keep one person out of a place like this it will make a difference. Let those who don't know hear your voice.

    @curlytails: A large commercial breeder in Quebec was raided over the weekend, and over 500 dogs were confiscated. The breeder is Paws R Us, which previously proudly called itself the largest commercial breeder in Canada. There will always be a problem out there when the mentality is "bigger/volume is better". Just this weekend we met a young guy who proudly said that his dog was one of 12 in the litter, and that there were lots of other dogs 'there' (at the BYB) and because of that he got his 'purebred' black lab for only $75. I cringed and could almost visualize the horrible situation the dogs were in. We need to keep getting across to people that BYBs who do not care about anything other than $$ need to be put out of business.

    My King Charles Spaniel was 16 when he died and I still think he left way too soon. He was really good dog. Thanks for posting that.

    @AJs: It's been a very long time since I read The Wizard of Oz. Is Wichita where the story starts? I googled "Dorothy's House Wichita" and nothing came up except ways to get to Liberal. That's where the house is that is advertised all over Kansas as THE Dorothy's House. From what I understand (and I have been wrong before…it could happen again) the house in Liberal is where they did some of the filming. But I love the Witch-ita reference...:D I think Dorthy's house was just considered to be a farm house "out in the middle of nowhere".
