    You guys are saying it’s disgusting and I understand that. There is a difference between a Breeder and a puppy mill. Puppy mills have no care whatsoever for the puppies, and the parents. Breeders, GOOD breeders, take pride in raising a healthy puppy with a healthy family. Breeders don’t breed tons of puppies in a month. They usually do a few seasons and are patient with their moms and studs. So for the people who want a puppy but also don’t want to be purchasing from a puppy mill, an animal shelter or trusted breeder is recommended. Breeders won’t overprice the puppies like a mill will.

      Agreed. My mom is a proud breeder but we dont have a ridiculous amount of dogs. We only have 1 male and 2 working females. But they are our pets. We play with them, clean them, etc. We dont force a dog to have puppies after she already had some. We let the mom take a nice long break and make sure she is healthy before we breed them again. We will NEVER breed the dogs if they are in pain, uncomfortable or unhealthy. My dog will retire with breeding in 2 years when she turns 6, because she will get old eventually. But i agree with you.

      Just to me a good responsible breeder will never have that many different breeds of dogs. A responsive breeder will have 1 maybe 2 breeds and if they have 2 odds are they are breeds that are similar in what they are bred for (ex. Labrador and golden retriever).

      How much are good breeder dogs compared to mills. Also do you know how exactly to look for good breeders. I’ve been searching but no luck. Only found 2 puppies out of the 4 breeds I want. And they are costing 7.5k

    • @kellyrios8561

      @@cloudyair7395sometimes it cost that much for an ethically bred dog. Rather pay 7k for an ethically bred dog from a well certified breeder than 7k for a dog that comes from profit making business. Btw, an ethical breeder usually has prices like these due to having FEW litters a year!! A friend of mine is a good example, he bred shiba inus, he was a registered breeder for 7 years! But in his entire 7 years of holding that title he only had…2 litters ever. Each puppy left for 7k! Total of 7 puppies he has ever raised. Why? Because out of those 7 years he spent all his time taking his dogs to shows and perfecting the breed standard. An ethical breeder never makes profit, when they do its nothing much. If a breeder is making more profit than what they put into the pup, it’s unethical.

    I’m not sure I’ve seen a breeder care for that many breeds at once. In my head a good breeder cares about where their puppies go, care to maintain or even improve genetics, and pay attention to temperament and behavior. I’m not saying she doesn’t do any of this but this video shared nothing to suggest she does. Looks like a backyard breeder to me

    100% a Puppy Mill. Nothing more, nothing less. I counted no less than 6 breeds, not a single dog looks anything like breed standard, and she sells to pet stores and online. She has no idea who ends up with her dogs, and clearly has no idea what she is breeding to accomplish other than selling dogs. Literally the definition of a puppy mill.

      @@Couchlover47 I know what a real and responsible breeder is. This could not possibly be further from that. She has dozens if not over 100 dogs of different breeds, and she is in business to sell puppies. Real responsible breeders NEVER EVER sell their pups to a pet store, EVER, and know a single breed, maybe two, intimately and breed to better the breed as a whole. I've worked with and for responsible breeders and experts on animal husbandry in many different forms. This is an absolute text book puppy mill, in every single meaning of the phrase.

Not to mention so-called show and ethical breeders can't produce 3% of the puppies that are in demand in this country. So what are people supposed to do go without or go to a pound and get a sick vicious mutt that's 60 pounds when they want a toy poodle please lady. Nobody cares what you think they want a puppy. As long as it's healthy nothing else matters a breeder for 50 years. Ignorant

    Im confused about the stigma behind breeding dogs....yes, there are homeless dogs in shelters and all over the streets in some countries. Thats sad. But not everyone wants to take home a mutt who was abandoned and has been through god knows what and has god knows what genetic problems. Many thousands of people want quality AKC puppies with known lineage and history. Nobody shames the person walking down the street with a purebred puppy but we are ready to lynch the provider of these puppies. . . . I mean, hell, if everyone wants to be so self righteous you ought to never want to have your own babies because there are hundreds of thousands of traumatized kids and teens in foster care right now waiting to be adopted. 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♂️ (By the way, this comment comes from someone who actually HAS adopted both children and pets.

      Exactly, the bottom-line coming from myself a large scale, quality breeder there is a small, small percentage of people that disagree with breeding registered dogs, the thing is the 95% that agree with it think it's common sense to agree with it, the 5% are so loud and proud that you think ALOT of people would have a problem with it, but really it'd say it's very well accepted, the only thing I saw that I don't necessarily agree with in the video, by no means condemning her either, to me a breeder with this many different types of dogs can't properly understand the intimate details of each breed, I think a breeder should have 4 or less breeds of dogs but that's personal opinion

      Not saying buying from these operation is better. Just saying your argument is sloppy. Not all indiviual dogs are the same, even if they're from the same breed. If you can't investigate the dog's pedigree to make sure there is no issue with its relative (parents, cousins, other siblings,uncles, aunts, grand parents...), then it's no better between taking lottery adopting a dog from shelter and buying from random places.

At least 6 different breeds of dogs, not a single dog in shot bred to their breed's standard (I am personally familiar with and have worked closely/owned 3 of these breeds), selling to pet stores and online, multiple litters at one time... This is a plain and simple puppy mill, by the very definition of the term. Just because the dogs aren't crawling around in feces and underfed doesn't mean it can't be a puppy mill.

That means: knowing what you are doing to improve the health and temperament of the breeds, provide more genetic diversity and care for the dogs in a household, not a cage outside. Take the pug for example, I am against breeding these dogs like they are bred today. They have so many genetic diseases and can't properly breathe. Dogs like the Shiloh Shepherd is something that I do support. Rescue when you can and just don't buy from puppy mills and please god stop breeding pets because "you want a puppy from them".
