Fourteen of New Jersey’s 29 pet stores are purchasing dogs from some of the worst puppy mills in the United States, including from one breeder who kills dogs by shooting them in the head, another who keeps small dogs outside in sub-freezing temperatures, an undercover investigation by the Humane Society of the United States has revealed. Once the pups arrive in New Jersey, some of the pet stores are keeping the little animals in “demonstrably inhumane conditions, with puppies confined to small, rusted cages and starved for human attention,” according to the report.

At three other pet stores — D&G’s Petite Pups, Carmona Pet Shop and Passaic Pets — an HSUS investigator was so concerned about conditions that were “crowded and dirty, with rusted cages and conditions that appeared inhumane,” that a Humane Society staffer reported the stores to local authorities. At D&G’s Petite Pups in Paterson, investigators found a “puppy in a small, rusty cage”  that “looked disheveled and depressed.” A man who answered the phone at D&G’s who didn’t wish to give his name said he didn’t think there was anything to be concerned about.

Again, Please help by not buying but rescuing these animals. It is advisable to adopt from pets especially dogs and cats from shelters and rescue teams and NOT but from these pet stores. This is the best way to save innocent lives and shut down cruel business. Please help with your support and help save our loyal friends. Your one vote can make all the difference.
