Noted and tried to sign. All American postal codes are 5 digits + 4 will pervail hopefully. It is for the USA? Regardless, unscrupulous puppy mill owners should do at least 1 year hard JAIL TIME! Then they will have a small idea of what it is like for the defenseless dogs (bitches) and their puppies.

thanks I have had many rescue dogs and they all came from puppy mills and they did not live long lives...if people would realize that you end up with huge vet bills and a broken heart...then maybe they will spend the money and buy from a breeder. We just drove to another state to get our samoyed pup from a reputable breeder and he is healthy and happy

It wouldn't accept my postal code. These torture chambers for these innocent victims needs to be closed down. It is all about the money that goes in the pocket and not much to these poor creatures. It needs to stop and I don't understand why most of them aren't closed down. They need to be inspected with no notice so they can't hide what they do to these babies and the horrible conditions they have to endure. Don't let this go on any longer, I don't understand why this is still going on.
