The term “puppy mill” can be a bit tricky to define as there is no “official” definition, however we define a puppy mill as any breeder that raises puppies in substandard conditions and places profits over the welfare of the puppies. This can include:

• Filthy kennels
• Puppies never left out of their cages
• Too many puppies in a small area
• No socialization or exercise
• Disease or skin conditions in puppies or adults

This isn’t how we raise puppies and we want to help you avoid other breeders who don’t treat their puppies well.
