To me, there is only ONE way to stop puppy Mills. You must remove their b= uyers. No outlet, no need for the mills Again, to me there is only one way to stop this. Pet stores should not be= allowed to sell dogs and cats. They can charge an adoption fee for mixed breed ca= ts and dogs. PAWS bill will NOT stop a Mill. Honest people are the only ones tha= t will abide by this rule. Mills will have multiple addresses to register from. = Laws only keep honest people honest. Have you ever seen how these pups are shipped? A crate similar to that wh= ere chicks are shipped is used. Many different breeds in one crate and a stac= k of AKC registration certificates. This also presumes that at the other side = someone knows the difference between a maltese, shitzu, west highland and tibetan The Mill owners do go to small breeders and offer to buy AKC registrations= of DEAD PUPPIES. Or A fee for using your address and name.
