If you follow any pet blogs, you're probably already aware of the frequent health conditions that arise from the deplorable environment in Puppy Mills. With little regard for the health of the parents, how can you expect to get healthy puppies from a puppy mill? Here is Dr. Pat's take on that situation, for your consideration:

King Charles Cavalier Spaniel's Health Concerns: Raising Awareness

With little regard for the health of the parents, how can you expect to get healthy puppies from a puppy mill? Here is Dr. Pat's take on that situation, for your consideration:
"Recently I attended a talk given by Wayne Pacell, the CEO for the United States Humane Society. Here is one of the stats he quoted: Every year there are 2 million puppies sold through puppy mills and 2 million animals euthanized at animal shelters." Math again, Dr. Pat?" Well, you have to admit that this is not only the easiest math question you'll ever answer, but also one with a crystal clear practical application: Get a dog from a shelter or reputable breeder. Puppy mills, and the enormous suffering to animals they bring, will be put straight out of business if we stop supporting them with our hard-earned paychecks."
