ABC Nightline to do a piece on Amish Puppy Mills tonight

[MiniMe]

Got this from my rescue group. I just don't know if I can watch it.

ABC Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi and investigators from Nightline travel the byways and back roads of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania - visiting numerous puppy mills and filming Main Line Animal Rescue's volunteers as they rescue breeding dogs and puppies from Lancaster County's notorious Amish commercial breeding facilities.

This promises to be a very special program. If you are involved in rescue, advocate on behalf of the millions of puppy mill dogs interned in our nation's commercial dog breeding facilities, or if you just simply love animals, you will not want to miss this.

Sharyn Alfonsi interviewed, on camera, an Amish breeder while touring his facility - a first for network television. With approximately 500 dogs housed on his property, this commercial breeder speaks openly about an industry cloaked in secrecy and suspicion - the cruel factory farming of man's best friend.

PLEASE tell your friends, your family, your coworkers - ABC Nightline investigates puppy mills - this Friday at 11:35 pm (Eastern Standard Time). Please take the time to forward this to all the rescues, shelters, and legislators in your area.

I have yet to recover from what I went through three years ago today. :cry:

3. Greed is an understatement. When you use living creatures as commodities, it is evil.

4. you are so right

it is a sickness of the mind IMO. People that do things like this to helpless animals will pay the price when their time comes. They will rot in hell no doubt.

Try to have some faith. I know that there are people working their butts off to outlaw puppy mills. Some progress is being slowly made.

However, the same culprit is always in the way blocking these efforts and they are the greed ridden ones behind the scenes (like the Hunte Corp.).

This is so sad it sickens me.

I guess I'll never get over "The dog I adopted". :(
