Today, Oprah Winfrey's show will cover the horrors of puppy mills. Just a few weeks ago, hundreds of small dogs were rescued from a breeder near Tucson. The Humane Society of the United States has had a long-standing campaign against puppy mills.
Adoption is always best--millions of healthy animals are killed every year because they don't have homes--but the HSUS does have tips on finding reputable breeders for those who do choose to buy a pet.
