We've just offered to help. OMG that's a lot of dogs. :(

Sad...so very, very sad that humans can do this to animals all for the sake of money. Those innocent little faces just break my heart. I'm glad the operation is now shut down, and :xfngr: they get lots of loving people to help give these dogs a better way of life.

Another one shut down in Illinois, Thank God

Im so happy that the authorities have closed down these puppy mills, long may it continue. I hope in the UK they do the same. Good luck to all those dogs and puppies I pray they all find loving homes and have long happy lives.

Oh my, that's unbelievable. But such good news! 1000 dogs. My mind boggles.

Sad, sad, sad, but not surprised. People sell drugs, run prostitution rings for the mighty$$$ too.

Glad they closed them down. A lot of dog owners are just not aware of the cruelty of those puppy mills. In fact, a few of my neighbors bought their dogs (not Cav.) from local pet stores.

Thank God they got all those poor animals out. I hope those people can be prosecuted :x and prevented from starting up all over again.

I'll second that Claire L.
