Press Release Body =
Americans purchase puppies from pet stores, dealers, newspaper advertisements and
via the Internet by the thousands and never sees the conditions in which the puppies
are born. A number of reports, however, have revealed that the conditions can be
horrific. Thousands of puppy breeding operations exist across the country. Many of
the problems inside these facilities include over breeding, inbreeding, minimal
veterinary care, poor quality of food and shelter, lack of socialization with
humans, overcrowded cages, and the killing of unwanted animals. All 50 states have
anti-cruelty laws that should prevent neglect and mistreatment of dogs Despite
repeated violations of the federal Animal Welfare Act (AWA) many of these operations
exist and go unpunished.
