ONLINE PUPPY SALES ALERT FOR BREEDERS
There is a growing trend of websites designed to "help" breeders sell puppies online. Sadly, many of these sites will troll the internet, find sites of breeders of all calibers (good to the
lowest millers) and add the URLS without asking permission.
This looks like breeders are supporting these sites/services when in actuality, many breeders do not and any good breeder should not. If you are a breeder and get an unsolicited email from one of these companies, DO NOT IGNORE IT! See if you have been listed. Contact the company and demand to be removed. Then go in a few days and check! Also, consider posting a note visibly on your site stating your feelings regarding these "services." NPMV has found listings for some superb breeders on some of these sites over the years.
New and updated pages are marked with a red paw print:
Not all dogs are created equal.
Some are given a great shot at life and the chance to find love with the best owners possible. Others are bred and brokered as commodities for the sole purpose of lining a pocket.
Some are bred with thought and consideration to form and function - better the breed. Others are bred just for the sake of profit.
Some come from carefully planned litters and from parents who have undergone careful health screenings. Others are bred haphazardly at best...
Some puppies are sold only to carefully screened homes. Others are sold to the first person whose cash is on the table...
So, just what is a Puppy Mill? How can you make sure you are getting the best dog possible? This site will help you...
