Miami-Dade County ranks highest in the country for pet stores peddling puppy-mill puppies. There are about 28 retail stores in Miami-Dade that are selling puppy-mill supplied puppies. The Humane Society of the United States is distributing materials and information in Spanish for the first time as well as in English to consumers in the Miami area to educate them on the puppy-mill-topet-store-pipeline.
John Goodwin, senior director of the Stop Puppy Mills Campaign, says: “Too often, puppy buyers only contact us after they have purchased a puppy and then realized within days that the puppy is sick or dying. Not only are they left with high vet bills, but they’re also often duped into signing on to high-interest loans to finance their new $3,000 pet. Consumers who want a puppy from a humane source should consider adopting from an animal shelter or reputable pet rescue first, or go only to a small, responsible breeder they have met in person.”
Florida is the number one state for pet store complaints in the country received by the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS). Over a dozen Miami-area stores have been linked to large-scale commercial dog breeders, also known as puppy mills.
Take a look at this short video compiled by HSUS of commercial breeding farms (aka puppy mills).

Throughout the month of October, we're partnering with Subaru of North Tampa in a Pet Food Drive for the St. Clement's Episcopal Church of Tampa's People and Pet Ministry.
Will you help us replenish their Pet Food Pantry? The Church's Ministry is giving out almost two tons of pet food each month to those in our community who need help most.
Stop by the dealership with unopened cans or bags of pet food of any brand. Be sure to pick up a complimentary copy of The New Barker Dog Magazine. The dealership is open 7 days a week at 11111 N. Florida Ave. in Tampa.

Dog bars like Pups Pub have become popular in Florida. Similar concepts are popping up across the country. The Florida Department of Health (FLDOH) has permitted more than a dozen dog bars, including Pups Pub Tampa and Pups Pup Orlando over the past five years.
However, suddenly without cause or reason, FLDOH targeted Pups Pub last year after they opened their Orlando location. The year-long battle cost Pups Pub in excess of $100,000 in the process including legal fees. Pups Pub prevailed and won their case against the FLDOH. The judge ordered the FLDOH to pay Pups Pub legal fees. Because of the win, Florida law will continue to allow dogs inside bars that do not serve food.
But, the FLDOH appealed the case. Now, Pups Pub, a veteran-owned business that hosts fundraising events for Florida rescue groups, and organizations like K9s For Warriors and Team Godwin Foundation, is facing another lengthy and costly legal battle.
Help us spread awareness of their plight by sharing this post. Show your support by participating in the Pup Squat Challenge. We'll include their GoFundMe page in the comments below. What's the Pup Squat Challenge? Check out our video and watch the Editor of THE NEW BARKER demonstrate.

Elle is for Love
A Gold Star Family is one that has lost an immediate family member in the line of duty of military service. It is an honor no one wants.
Emily met and fell in love with John Tinsley when they were both in the Army. After their marriage and the birth of their child Isabella, John was deployed to Afghanistan in 2009.
One afternoon, as she was putting Isabella down for her nap, Emily heard a knock at the door. She looked out the window to see the two Army personnel. CPT John Tinsley had been killed by an IED.
In this episode of the award-winning film series Dogs of Destiny, watch and listen to Emily tell her story of love, loss, endurance, hope, and Elle – a Southeastern Guide Dogs Gold Star Dog.
