"Bark" is an annual educational event dedicated to share information about puppy mills and the abuse these dogs suffer in them, as well as ways to put a stop to this barbaric practice.
This group is here to educate, advocate and raise awareness for change because silence equals consent.
What is a Puppy Mill?
A puppy mill is a person or business that breeds dogs for commercial sale without regard to the dogs’ breeding line, health or well-being.
A puppy mill is a person or business that breeds dogs for commercial sale without regard to the dogs’ breeding line, health or well-being.
A puppy mill generally “produces” many different breeds of dogs including the new “designer” breeds.
A puppy miller, the person who runs the mill, will often ship puppy or dog to a new owner without the owner ever meeting the pup or seeing the pups parents.
A puppy miller may take an application, just like a reputable breeder and may say they are involved in rescue.
A puppy mill breeds a female dog every time the dog comes into heat. Dogs can come into heat as young as 6 months of age—they are still a baby themselves when they have their first litter.
The female dogs are often kept in solitary confinement and bred over and over until they die of physical exhaustion; or are killed because they no longer produce and are useless to the miller.
