Why Say No To Puppy Farms Dogs?

Why Say No To Puppy Farms Dogs?

27/10/2022 By Doggie

What s wrong with Puppy Farms Dogs? By purchasing these pups, you might be removing them from a squalid life, but no thought is given to the mothers of these sick puppies who languish in cramped spaces, never seeing the light of day or feeling the comforting touch of a human hand.

They are breeding machines, with little or no recovery between litters and when they can no longer reproduce, are often killed.

🐶🔥➡️ Who Are The 5 Most Expensive Dog Breeds?

I remember Lily, a Cocker Spaniel who was purchased from an online advertisement. Our client had suspected that she was a breeding bitch since she was not house trained and was petrified of open spaces.

When I first met Lily she was unresponsive and had very little interest accept for her owner, whom she followed everywhere.

It was heartbreaking and took many visits at the puppy farms dogs before she would even acknowledge me, but the breakthrough, when it came, was almost euphoric. I entered the property as normal and called Lily’s name.

Usually it took a few renditions of Hello by Lional Ritchie, before she would lift her head from a sleeping position, but that day, there was a slight wag of her tail and a little light in those dark brown eyes that made me believe that she was slowly emerging from her shell.

🐶😍🔥➡️Who Are The 8 Most Affectionate Dog Breeds?

In the three years of walking Lily, she would never show the exuberance of a ‘normal’ dog, but slowly, over time, a bond was formed. Lily was shy with strangers throughout the remainder of her life, but she became the most loving of dogs and completely devoted to those within her family unit.

Sadly the family moved out of our area, but kept in touch until we were informed that she died a couple of years later. Lily was one of the lucky ones. She made it out of her prison and was given a chance. She absolutely adored her saviors and her loyalty knew no bounds.

How can we end puppy farms dogs?

So how can we put an end to puppy mills? NEVER buy a puppy/dog from an online or newspaper or advertisement. Do NOT buy from a pet store and if you suspect that a neighbor, or someone you know is involved in the puppy mill trade, report them immediately to the RSPCA.

The only real way to shut down puppy mills is to stop the demand. Did you know that virtually every breed has a rescue, so if you really must have a pure bred puppy or dog, contact the Kennel Club, who will direct you to the right organisation.

These societies are completely dedicated to re-homing pedigree dogs and by adopting this way, you are quite literally saving lives. For every empty kennel in rescue, or with a foster carer, there is another dog waiting to be re-homed.

I also find it extremely frustrating that some people see adoption centres as full of problematic dogs. Pets in rescue should never be tainted, as those with behavioural problems! Let me assure you that this is largely untrue!

Nearly 45% of our clients have pets adopted from shelters and not one has proved problematic to our pet sitters. In fact, they are loving, faithful and devoted to their owners and form close bonds with their sitters.

We have also helped to re-home clients pets, who have been the result of a marriage breakup, where clients have moved out of the country and been unable to take their pets with them, or a change in circumstances which has seen them unable to continue care for their animals, so please do not attach a stigma to pets that end up in rescue.

Far from being unadoptable, they make the most wonderful pets and a good rescue organisation will temperament test and offer training were necessary. They will also be fully assessed, health checked, micro chipped and spayed or castrated before going out into their new home, so please give them a chance.

Why You Shouldn’t Adopt a Puppy From a Puppy Farm

There are a few reasons you shouldn’t adopt a puppy from a puppy farm. First, the dog you adopt may not be socialized. You have to be willing to accept him for who he is. He might be timid or fearful of strangers, but that won’t stop him from wanting to be around you.

Second, a puppy mill dog’s temperament will be undoubtedly affected by his upbringing.

Third, the puppy mill dog may be competitive with other dogs in the puppy mill. This can lead to marking behavior due to competition for attention, toys, or food. It can also be triggered by seeing other dogs outside. Thankfully, there are a variety of products available that help a dog adapt to other dogs.

Fourth, puppy farms often have poor conditions. Often, the conditions are unsanitary, and puppies may be forced to breed. This can be harmful to their health, and it can cause a lot of stress for the animals. It is also difficult to track how many litters a female has produced.

Lastly, puppy farms may not be the best place to adopt a puppy. There are other options available, such as shelters. Animal welfare groups have reported a large increase in demand for animals in recent years, particularly for puppies.
