There are two primary choices in life: to accept conditions as they exist, or accept the responsibility for changing them.

We have all heard of the “ripple effect”, how one drop of water can create a big effect. The Puppy Mill Rescue Team, strives to make small changes every day to create change in the lives of puppy mill dogs.
Since January of this year, we have already ushered over 400 dogs to safety into reputable rescues- surpassing the total number of saves last year. Every adoption, every post, every share pushes that ripple effect out farther and farther by spreading awareness and education.
One source recently told us:
I was doing kennel inspections today and I heard from quite a few of the breeders that puppy sales have been real slow and a lot of people are really questioning where there pups are coming from. One guy said that he has multiple people come back and tell him they changed their mind on buying the pup because of a little Google research!



Words like that fuel us to push forward. By supporting us, and the amazing rescues on our team you are part of the change. Thank you for choosing to accept responsibility for making a difference!
We want to give a special thank you to all the rescues who have helped us this year.
