Stop Online Puppy Mills NFP is a 501(c)3 tax exempt organization dedicated to ending puppy mills through educating consumers.
Puppy mills are high volume dog breeders who sell puppies for profit. Any dog breeder can be a puppy mill. The innocent dogs that are caged for breeding – the ones making all of the puppies, live a life of suffering. Puppy buyers don’t think about the parent dogs that are forced to breed and make puppies over and over again.
This is what our cause is really about – raising awareness about the breeding dogs.
There are an estimated 10,000 puppy mills in the U.S. producing a shocking estimate of 2.4 million puppies a year. The breeding dogs live a life in conditions that most people would consider horrific & inhumane. It is hard for consumers to associate the reality of what goes on through these high-volume breeders.
Selling puppies online is how deceptive dog breeders sell their puppies. They conceal their kennel operations from public view and the buyer is insulated from the truth.
Puppy mills lie about their dogs. They have to in order to complete the sale.
So, we ask you – please make a difference
Become an educated buyer for your family’s sake and for the sake of the parent dogs left behind.
The internet is a 24/7 unmonitored marketplace and online puppy sales is a dark and sad reality.
You can make the difference.
Make the right choice.
Please – Make the difference.
