Please watch Oprah's show today
This show is for people to get educated about the hidden world of puppy mills and evil petshops
Please spread the word around to anyone you know who is thinking of purchasing a pet
THANKS!
Jess

Re: Please watch Oprah's show today
You read my mind, I was just about to cross-post from pets.
Please, it is so important to have an organized wide-spread effort to close the mills down for good.

Maybe. I would not surprise me, but it is important for anyone who still questions what the anti-millers have to say as valid or truthful.
And the whole industry is sad. I have seen several documentaries and videos of some rescue groups going into mills. Some of it just affects me on a deep level.

Re: Please watch Oprah's show today
I won't be able to watch the show today. Can someone please let us know if the show makes a point to distinguish MILLS from responsible BREEDERS?
My reservation about this show is that it will also cause people to turn against reputable breeders... however, seeing as Oprah has several purebreds of her own, I'm guessing this isn't the case. It was just something I was curious about.

The guy just distingushed between a responsible breeder & noted that shelters & rescues do not have concern with them because they will take their dogs back & they do not end up neglected.

OMG. I was thinking the same thing. I would love to dedicate my life to this.
I am so upset and angry, words can't describe. I plan on making donations today but I don't feel it's enough.
