websites that give information about puppy mills
Education is the key to ending the nightmare of the commercial breeding industry and pet overpopulation. The entire student body of Central High School in Pueblo, CO attended an outreach event and were provided insight into the dog breeding industry. Many NMDR volunteers were at the high school along with quite a few happy puppy mill survivors.
