Commercial Breeders

It has come to our attention that many of the commercial breeders have been using some new catch phrases to mislead the general public and provide a "cover" to the fact that STILL they commercially breed dogs strictly for profit.

Beware of "commercial breeders" saying they have "older rescue" dogs for sale. What this really means is their "breeders" are not producing for them anymore. Instead of selling them at those disgusting dog auctions, they are now advertising them as "older rescues" who need a good home. This is disgusting.

Legitimate Rescue organizations and individuals DO NOT breed dogs into the ground and then offer them as older rescues!

There are many legitimate pure breed rescuers who do breed an occaional litter for show but they do not lie about it and the fact that they do participate in their own breed rescue speaks volumes about the genuine love and dedication to their breed, unlike the puppy millers who have no regard for their aging "livestock"
