24. Here's a reason to fight the puppy mills...
This is Guido - he's a six year old Pomeranian puppy mill rescue. I've had him for a little over three weeks.



Guido was so matted when he left the mill he had to be shaved, most of his teeth had to be pulled, and the little guy had never played with toys. I had to show him how to play (and now he loves his toys - he flips them all over the house). He's deathly afraid of visitors but I'm working with him to make him feel safe.

He's a bright, lively and sweet little dog who has spent most of his six years in a cage. He had no idea what to do at first in a fenced-in yard - he was actually afraid of grass.

These puppy mill people need to be stopped from their crimes, and if PETA assists in those efforts I say - more power to them. The horror stories of how these dogs are treated are just blood-curdling.
