Puppy Mills in South Africa
Despite the growing number of dogs languishing in shelters
across South Africa, unscrupulous breeders continue to churn out litter after
litter, not only contributing to pet-overpopulation, but reaping the rewards
while those in their ‘care’ suffer.
If you buy a puppy from a pet store or an unregistered
breeder, over the internet or through a newspaper classified ad, you could be
perpetuating the abuse. Reputable
breeders don’t sell their puppies in this way, but puppy mills do.
