I got my puppy from Debby’s Petland in Nashua,NH, a month ago. I got a Welsh Terrier for $1,500! I had NO CLUE he was from THE HUNTE CO, untill I did research over the next few days. I was PISSED!!! He had Kennel cough, and I had to pay for his medications at the vet. Which wasn’t bad, but Iwas stupid. I feel I kinda saved him, but my $$ went to such a horrible cause! I am so for shutting ALL PUPPY MILLS DOWN, especially THE HUNTE CO. and ALL PET LAND’S!!! Ithink people should get their doggies from either a shelter or a reputible breeder, that has Mommy on premisis. ALL People should be aware of this subject, before paying top dollar for a sick dog.

So boycott them and tell them why! Actions speak louder than words. I’m not supporting the AKC or Petland or Iams. Iams (Eukanuba one of the Akc’s Dog show Supporters) Boycott everyone who supports them. Do something! Be it educate the public, Write the senators, congressmen and women in your state for tighter legislation.Talking and not taking action does nothing to help these poor animals who are suffering. We have to get mad and we have to stand up and do something to help otherwise these sicko win. I’m not going down without a wicked fight!

I am angry anyway at Petland. A relative of mine bought a very expensive (yes VERY expensive) French Bulldog at a Petland. They told them he was registered. NOT. He was registered, but not with the AKC but with some petfinders. By the time they found out, they were too devoted to him to return him. What a bunch of scammers. You pay up in the thousands you would think they could register them with the AKC. Please…they need to be hung out to dry….

No one should breeding or selling dogs with all the homeless pets we have throughout our country and in other countries. Shame on Petland and all the other people out there making money off the backs of the poor breeding dogs.
Shame on puppy millers especially. Locking away innocent dogs and using them as breeding machines in the most inhumane conditions. I wish I could lock every single puppy miller up in the same conditions they lock these poor dogs away in and leave them there. It’s the only way they’ll every understand the sheer magnitude of cruelty. Shame on AKC for promoting puppy mills, supporting them and making money off them! Shame shame shame…..

Gypsy, Hunte Corporation is a broker. They BUY the puppy mill dogs from the puppy mill breeders.

A tour of Hunte tells you NOTHING. You never get to see the puppy mills that the parent dogs are still prisoners in.

And in Missouri, humane laws are few and far between, and never enforced. It is Puppy Mill Central.

But you know that, don’t you?

However Hunte DOES have their ugly secrets of death and abuse http://www.petstorecruelty.org/Hunte%20Corp.htm

Scroll down to read about the trenches of dead dogs on Hunte property.

And Hunte himself owns many Petlands. AKC sets up at Hunte conventions.

But here’s even more of the story http://www.caninechronicle.com/Features/Bernardi_08/bernardi_108.html and http://www.geocities.com/jcrowe22/akcmisconduct.html

You really have no clue what you’re talking about do you? Contact the Hunte Co. and they will give you a tour where you pick where you want to go. You will not be barred from any part of their facility. They are not a puppy mill and there is no “sleazy bed” with the AKC and Petland. The Petlands in MO take excellent care of ALL the animals as does Hunte. Get all your facts straight before you go bad mouthing companies you no nothing about.

AKC doesn’t like Cesar Milan because his methods are harsh. Sometimes harsh methods are called for. Like when somebody buys an aggressive, non-socialized puppy from Petland that went through Hunte Corporation. Visit our website for more information.
