I'm watching right now and the 10 minutes I just caught brought me to tears. I have the urge to run to the spca right now to adopt a dog!

it was heartbreaking, crying through it, but they did a great job getting information out. 10,000 puppy mills in this country.
one thing that's so hard for people is they learn and want to buy a puppy from a petstore to rescue it, but that supports the puppy mill industry. supply and demand. i don't even buy anything, toys or nuttin, from a store that sells puppies or kittens. my soapbox for the day. little shrimp was a doll. so sweet looking.

Well, I missed it completely. Had to work and did not think to program the DVR. Maybe it will be on again. I think all puppy mills should be shut down!!! Education is the key as with most things!!

I'll tell you I'm ready to go over to the local shelter in the morning and find a little one that we can spoil and love. I am dead serious!!

I don't want to put a damper on things, but don't rush out to do this Kat. You know, I'm sure that an animal (of any kind) should never be an impulse buy or a guilt buy. They need a lifetime full committment, they've been through enough.

I think she just touched the surface. Although the kennels they showed were bad, I have seen some that were much worse in the news. I think they should have put some of them in the show for a bigger shock factor.

Why do I want another dog, am I trying to fill that empty space in my heart? The best thing I can do right now is donate my time and money to my local shelter. Put my money where my mouth is. If and when I decide to get another furbutt, it will be for all the right reasons. I'm on a first name basis with a couple good breeders.  Thanks for the input everyone.

I'm so glad that Oprah put the facts about puppy mills out there. I don't have the heart to watch those kinds of shows, but I would love to see all puppy mills put out of business.
