| SOME OF THE LUCKY ONES |
| STOP PUPPY MILLS |
| WHAT YOU CAN DO |
| DON'T BUY FROM A PET STORE OR BROKER. BROKER'S ARE THE PEOPLE THAT ADVERTISE "OVER 30 BREEDS - WE CAN GET ANY BREED YOU WANT." THEY GET THEM FROM PUPPY MILLS! THOSE AKC PAPERS DO NOT GUARATEE HEALTH OR QUALITY. THEY MAY NOT EVEN BELONG WITH THAT DOG. |
| COMPLAIN TO LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES IF YOU THINK YOU KNOW OF A PUPPY MILL. |
| IF YOU SEE PUPPIES IN A STORE KEPT IN CAGES - COMPLAIN TO YOUR HUMANE SOCIETIES. PICKET THE STORE AND BLACK BALL IT. |
| WRITE TO YOUR SENATORS AND REPRESENTATIVES. ASK THEM TO MAKE LAWS TO OUTLAW PUPPY MILLS. |
| ONLY WHEN ENOUGH PEOPLE SHOUT LONG AND LOUDLY WILL THIS CRUELTY END. |

| LUCY BLUE WAS RESCUED IN 1998. IT TOOK MANY MONTHS OF LOVE AND PATIENCE BEFORE SHE WOULD VENTURE NEAR A PERSON. SHE IS NOW HEALTHY AND HAPPY AND LOVES HER HUMANS. |
| SHASTA WAS RESCUED IN 2002. EXTREMELY ANEMIC, SHE HAD BORNE HER FIRST LITTER WHEN ONLY 8 MONTHS OLD, AND HAD TWO MORE LITTERS BEFORE SHE WAS 20 MONTHS OLD. A GOOD SAMARITAN BOUGHT HER FROM THE PUPPY MILL AND TURNED HER OVER TO SHELTIE RESCUE. SHE HAS REGAINED HER HEALTH AND HAS A NEW HOME AND A NEW NAME - HOLLY. |
| STORIES LIKE THESE ARE HAPPENING ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. THESE DOGS RECEIVE NO MEDICAL CARE AND ARE NEVER LET OUT OF THEIR CAGES FOR EXERCISE. THEY ARE NOT SOCIALIZED WITH HUMANS AND SOME EVEN GO MAD FROM THE CONFINEMENT. THERE HAVE BEEN CASES OF DOGS WHO'S VOCAL CHORDS WERE RUPTURED BY A PIPE SHOVED DOWN THEIR THROATS. THIS IS TO KEEP THEM FROM BARKING. PET STORE PUPPIES HAVE MOTHERS WHO ARE TREATED LIKE THIS. |
