How can you get involved and show you care?  Your VERY FIRST step is to sign the End Puppy Mills Pledge!

THE PLEDGE:  I know that puppy mills are places of unspeakable and heartbreaking animal suffering.

By signing this pledge I commit to help end puppy mills by:

  1. Thinking carefully before getting a dog.
  2. Choosing wisely and only from an ethical source such as a humane society, SPCA or rescue group.
  3. Loving the dog I have chosen deeply and for life.
  4. Educating my friends and family about puppy mills.

If you encounter a puppy mill in your search for a dog you will probably want to rescue one of the dogs.  By taking the following actions you can help shut the place down and rescue all of the dogs from a life of suffering and misery:

  • Take photos of the facility and the individual dogs, especially those that appear sick or injured
  • Document everything – how many dogs you saw, what breeds, what the facility smelled like, what it sounded like
  • Contact your local humane society, SPCA or police immediately and provide them with all of your documentation.

What’s a puppy mill?

Puppy mills are inhumane breeding operations that churn out as many puppies as possible, as quickly and cheaply as possible.That means filthy, crowded cages, minimal human contact, little or no veterinary care, and unspeakable suffering for the dogs bred in these places.
