The fact that large - scale
dog breeding facilities still exist and are «approved» by government shows a lack of knowledge of proper canine health by authorities and demonstrates a systemic failure by government to protect animals within these type of facilities.
Nearly 5,500 healthy and adoptable
dogs are killed in shelters across the U.S. every day yet most pet stores
still in operation continue to promote and sell
dogs from large - scale
breeding facilities known as puppy mills.
