Look
at these pictures, please. You've seen them at the top of, and in the body of,
every page on this site. All of them are real, the "mill" photos
taken surreptitiously by courageous visitors to commercial breeders in our
state and the "rescue dog" photos snapped by volunteers at animal
rescue organizations. These photos illustrate more than words ever could why we
believe that licensing and regulation of commercial pet breeding facilities are
crucial.
The
"mill" pictured at the top of this page is up and running near Monroe
county. The "breeding stock" never get out of their cages. The
females never get a rest from being bred in every heat. The cages and sheds
have no heat. This is just one of many such "operations" in
Wisconsin. Until we have state-wide enforced regulations to control these kinds
of "businesses"...animals will continue to be forced to live in
horrific conditions ...in our state of Wisconsin.
Below
are links to an "album" of full-size versions of nearly every photo
on our site. Though some are not pleasant to look at, none of these photos is
particularly graphic, as puppy mill photos go -- though many are disturbing for
the organized, commercialized, and widely accepted, animal cruelty they depict.
