Go Humane Colorado Springs Pet Stores There are 2 pet stores in Colorado Springs that legally sell puppies from puppy mills. It is time to make a change.

It is time to send a message to our local politicians that something must be done to change this.

We are seeing a doodle craze plus many new popular “designer dogs”. Please help us spread the word that if someone is looking for a mixed breed dog (or mutt) to first look at their local rescue, shelter or petfinder.com ! And if they insist on buying puppies, avoid pet stores or websites that ship right to you!

Instead, demand and insist on seeing where the parents live. For more information on puppy mills, visit https://bailingoutbenji.com/about-puppy-mills/

This is why we say

Beware of websites that sell and ship puppies. If the breeder will not let you meet the mother dog in person and see where she and all of her dogs live...find another breeder. Don't support puppy mill cruelty.

A step in the right direction!

A step in the right direction!

🎉VICTORY🎉

The USDA has announced it will END the use of "teachable moments” as of August 1, 2022. TMs were used to obscure findings during inspections at puppy mills, labs, and other licensed operations. USDA inspectors will now be required to document ALL violations on public inspection reports. Thank you to all the advocates who urged USDA to be transparent. TY Appropriators - especially Chairman Congressman Sanford Bishop & other legislators for directing end TMs! 🙌

Where do pet store puppies come from? The truth might shock you. Our research has connected hundreds of pet stores to the worst puppy mills in the country.

Please just leave them at home.

Please just leave them at home.

Is that quick errand worth your pet's life?

In just 10 minutes, the temperature inside a car can become fatal. Pets can quickly suffer from brain damage or die from heat stroke or suffocation if left in a parked car on a hot day. 😞

Please, DO NOT leave your pets in the car this summer.

Congratulations New York!! 💙 We are not giving up in Colorado Springs yet!

New York State just became the 6th state to prohibit the sale of puppy mill puppies (and cats and rabbits) in pet stores! Now the bill is off to the Governor to be signed!

Once it is signed into law, around 80 puppy-selling stores will have one year to go humane and partner with legitimate rescues and shelters. In 2020, New York stores imported more than 12,000 puppies from puppy mills in the midwest.

Last week a property in Missouri was raided and more than 57 animals were rescued from what appears to be an unlicensed puppy mill. Owner, Campbell Bee, was taken into custody and is facing a misdemeanor count of animal abuse and a felony count of making a terrorist threat, after Bee threatened harm against the police. On top of the animals that were saved, there were numerous burned and dismembered animals on the property.

Original Story: https://www.joplinglobe.com/news/property-owner-charged-in-animal-abuse-case/article_a6f466c0-8475-11ec-9b41-2787c5542d73.html

Our research has connected Campbell Bee to at least three Petland locations, one of which he sold at least 40 puppies to, as well as an additional pet store in Texas (Pet City Houston). Nearly every store that we have connected to Bee has testified at local and state hearings in order to assure policy makers that they do not source from puppy mills.

On this week's episode of "Truth, Lies and Puppy Mills" we get into the details of the case and discuss how our research shows that pet stores are sourcing from many unlicensed breeders, as well as USDA licensed ones.

The term ‘puppy farm’ is one not many of us have heard before.  Your mind can automatically conjure up an image of a sunny, farm-land filled with bouncy puppies roaming around.  Sadly, this image couldn’t be further from the truth.  Puppy farms, Puppy mills and Commercial Breeders are all b...
