STOP THE CRUELTY OF PUPPY MILLS

• "...if one person is unkind to an animal, it is considered to be cruelty, but where a lot of people are unkind to animals, especially in the name of commerce, the cruelty is condoned and, once sums of money are at stake, will be defended to the last by otherwise intelligent people." -- Ruth Harrison
  
  I am appalled. Once again. This coming Wednesday afternoon, there will be an auction held in Thorp, Wisconsin, just a few miles east of Chippewa Falls. It's a dog auction. http://petshelter.bizland.com/nodogauctions/
  
  The permanent link to the left will help you find breaking news regarding a recent closure of Wisconsin's largest "puppy mill" near Milwaukee. The owner of Puppy Haven (I know, can you even stand it that this moronic bastard named this facility "haven") is selling all his dogs and equipment and retiring. About time! What can you do? Educate yourself...read the information on the website, and for God's sake...
  Never, EVER buy a pet at a petstore! We even go one farther and ask that you not buy ANYTHING at a store which sells live animals, because chances are those kittens, birds, small mammals, and reptiles also come from a mill-type breeding facility.
