Hey everyone! Going along with our current theme of advocating for animal welfare, this week we decided to talk about puppy mills. Puppy mills are unethical mass breeding sites for dogs that are often sold to pet stores. The conditions dogs are forced to endure in these places are egregious, and Celine herself has seen the impacts of the mills on her dog Alfie. We hope this episode sheds light on these issues and empowers you to contact your legislators to enact change and end puppy mills!
