About Puppy Mill Action Week
Civil Rights , Safety & Security
Ends: May 09, 2021
DESCRIPTION:
There is a difference between a commercial breeder, which follows humane laws and treats animals with respect in a clean and healthy environment, and Puppy Mills, which are unregulated and warehouse animals in the interest of profit over wellbeing.
Puppy Mills are a global problem. Female dogs are often forced to reproduce over and over again, then discarded when they can no longer reproduce. Their litters are either offered for sale as pets to pet stores and purebred enthusiasts, or in some Asian cultures including South Korea, as meat for the dinner table during Bok Nal or 'dog eating days' in a soup called bosintang. Over 2.5 million dogs a year are slaughtered in South Korea alone for this dish. Cats are also eaten and farmed in several Asian countries.
These animals are kept in inhumane conditions that are overcrowded, dirty, and in the case of South Korea, often tortured because of a belief that it 'makes the meat taste better'. A recent rescue in South Korea included 'nearly 200 Chihuahuas, corgis, huskies, jindos, Yorkshire terriers, poodles, Pomeranians, shih tzus, and French bulldogs from a squalid breeding facility in Hongseong that housed pups under heat lamps in disused tyres.'

Puppy Mills in the West, though they aren't raising dogs for eating, are just as horrific. Missouri followed by Ohio are the top two states for puppy mills. Puppy Mill dogs are often stacked in wire cages, several to a cage, with no access to exercise and often in filthy conditions.
National Puppy Mill Action Week is dedicated to ending this practice and insuring that all dogs born and bred receive the care and protection they deserve.
