Puppy Mill Initiatives
Puppy Mill Initiatives
Right now, hundreds of thousands of adult dogs are suffering on the "production line" in America's puppy mills. They live in tiny wire-bottom cages, in squalid conditions, with little human contact and veterinary care, often for years. Their sole purpose is to produce puppies for the pet trade. It is no life for man's best friend.
Meanwhile, more than 9,000 animals are killed in America's shelters every day.
The goal of Best Friends' puppy mill initiatives is to bring about a time of No More Homeless Pets by working against puppy mills and irresponsible breeding. Our team saves lives by educating consumers about the inhumane conditions in puppy mills, encouraging people to adopt rather than buy pets, and advocating for better laws to combat puppy mills.
Please join us in working toward a day when all of America's pets will have what they deserve: good care, safety, and love from a family of their own.
