Puppy mills are mass-production breeding facilities where dogs are forced to produce litter after litter of puppies. They supply nearly 100 percent of the dogs sold in pet stores and directly to consumers online, at flea markets, and through newspaper ads. Dozens, hundreds, and sometimes thousands of dogs per facility live in overcrowded and unsanitary cages without sufficient food, water, grooming, socialization, or veterinary care and therefore suffer a multitude of social, emotional, and physical conditions, including genetic disorders and deformities.
