While millions of forgotten animals are killed in our nation's shelters, the unfortunate dogs in puppy mills are forced to produce litter after litter until they die. Stores that sell puppies acquire them from "puppy mills," factories where breeding dogs live their entire lives cramped in filthy cages.

Even though our nation's shelters are overflowing with animals--an amazing twenty-five percent of whom are purebred--puppy mills continue to generate millions of dollars for the unscrupulous "pet" industry.

In an effort to break this tide of misery and death, IDA will continue targeting Petland, the nation’s largest pet store chain, and a major retailer of puppies, kittens, and other small animals such as rabbits and guinea pigs.

Get involved with campaigning against puppy mills in your community. Your help is needed to put an end to this cruel industry.  Contact Hope Bohanec, Field Director at hope@idausa.org to learn more about getting involved.
