While factories the world over have recently been forced to shut down due to the economic crisis, puppy factories continue to boom.
Mass-producing puppies for profit, their operators are simply business people with little or no concern for the animals they force
to breed in appalling facilities. It's not uncommon for female dogs as young as six months old to churn out litters constantly for their entire lives.
When they're no longer able to breed, they're euthanised. But perhaps the most shocking truth about puppy factories is that they're operating right here, in towns all across Australia.
With your signature of support we can approach the government requesting
to have the laws and legislations regulating puppy factories tightened, ultimately
closing them down for good.
At this stage in the fight to close puppy factories, awareness is our greatest weapon. Please forward this site to friends and family and become a fan of closepuppyfactories.org on Facebook to be kept updated on the campaign.
If you're looking for a new dog, check your local RSPCA or other animal rescue group first. There are many wonderful puppies and dogs out there looking for new homes.
But if you can’t find the right dog for you, or have your heart set on a specific breed, you’ll need to find a good breeder. Here’s how to go about it.
