Episode description
There are an estimated 10,000 puppy mills in the U.S., often hiding the terrible conditions their breeding animals are kept in by selling the pups at pet stores or through deceptively charming websites. How can you make sure that when you add a new pet to your family, you aren’t accidentally helping puppy millers profit? We’ll take through the issue with one of our experts.
