Now knowing as much as we do about these horrid places, the apalling conditions the dogs are kept in, the lack of hygiene and proper nutrition, congested living conditions, and rarely if ever a friendly voice or a gentle hand in greeting, does anyone have any positive suggestions as to how we can expose these wretched people for the common good of all dogs?
I wondered about writing to local papers to highlight the problem and asking the public to be vigilant, also local radio, and the TV Vetinary programmes. Our Vet has a sign posted up asking people to report them and of course it is a good start, but I feel that so many people do not even realise what goes on in these places, so tend not to be unduly concerned. I often meet people who think that Puppy Farms are just breeders who breed en masse to make profit, but are totally unaware of the cruelty aspect. In fact I didn't know how really bad they were myself until Karlin explained it in great detail.
