About Puppy Mill Awareness Day
The ASPCA defines Puppy Mill “as a large-scale commercial dog breeding operation that places profit over the well-being of its dogs—who are often severely neglected—and acts without regard to responsible breeding practices.”
This is different from accredited breeders who give their animals complete care.
Puppy mills became prevalent after World War II, when normal crops were in trouble. Promoting puppies became a cash crop. In a puppy mill, female dogs are bred at every opportunity with little to no recovery time between litters. Once they are physically depleted and can no longer can reproduce, breeding females are often killed.
Puppy Mill Awareness Day is about ending the practice of mass breeding for profit with little or no care for the animals wellbeing.
