I want to start by saying that there are some amazing breeders out there. If you want a specific dog, do your research and make sure that they treat their animals with love, care, and respect. Unfortunately, the dogs you usually find in pet stores, or for sale in ads, are from puppy mills that only care about money. Their animals suffer and we need to stop this from happening. Please, adopt from a local shelter or rescue group! Help put an end to puppy mills!
Designer Dogs
A puppy mill is never safe
Most dogs from them will die,
So now I have to ask you this
Why do you choose to buy?
Each time you buy and don’t adopt
You help keep mills alive,
Because you choose “designer dog,”
Some pups will not survive!
A breeder dog has no real life
They’re bred and bred again,
They never get to run and play
Their life is in a pen!
The pups gets pulled from their sweet mom
Too early for good health,
There is no love from those involved
It’s all about their wealth!
The ones that need some extra help
Will die alone and scared,
They’ll spend a moment on this earth
To see that no one cared!
Now mommy will get bred once more
Cause no one hears her cry,
“I am too old to birth again
This time I’ll surely die!”
The puppy mill won’t shed a tear
They only want your cash,
So when the mom dog cannot breed
They’ll throw her in the trash!
The pups that make it to the store
Now beg and hope and pray,
That someone with a caring heart
Will come take them away!
It’s true that some of them will find
A home with loving care,
But no one does a background check
To pups, that is unfair!
So if you want “designer dog”
Adopt one made with love,
The shelters are quite full of them
Designed by Him, above!
