Most of your viewers would be shocked and appalled to learn "where puppies come from" that end up in pet stores. Please do a show on this important, underexposed topic. Thanks!
Animals have no say. It is up to us to speak for them. I sign this petition in loving memory of Kumar my shepard/lab mix. She taught me the true meaning of courage in the face of adversity
Oprah, I have had this idea of writing to you never knowing that someone else did as well. Please get involved on behalf of all of us who give hours and hours rescuing these little defenseless animals that end up at the shelters because of these puppymills. Thanks
The euthanasia that results from pet overpopulation and the suffering of animals in puppy mills has to weigh heavy on our conscience and must be ended.
Please help the innocent animals by exposing these horrible horrible mills. The damage they do the dogs in their care and to the puppies they sell is just horrendous.
An all important issue to speak out for those who are not able to speak for themselves - please help to stop the needless killing and suffering of puppies and dogs in the name of the dollar.
The world listens to you, Oprah. I know how much you care about animals. Please help us expose those disgusting puppy mills and end the pain and suffering of so many of God's creatures. Bless you for your caring heart.
Puppymills are a sad fact in our sociaty that many people are unaware of - please help us educate everyone on this very important subject before it becomes time for those poor Christmas puppies.
Please help educate the public as to the horrible conditions female dogs are subjected to when they are forced to be bred over and over again with no rest until they are near death by these puppy mills. All this motivated only by money. This can be compared to a reputable and responsible dog breeder who is loving and caring in their approach to breeding and who do it for the benefit of the dog's breed and their love of dogs.
Oprah -- you've educated a large audience on many issues. please consider doing a show to expose the indecency of puppy mills. so many people just don't know where that cute little "doggy in the window" came from!
Go to www. prisonersofgreed.org if you can bear it. While they're breeding tortured animals never asking to be born, abandoned animals are being killed in shelters asking to be adopted. Anyone who wants a status pet should simply buy a new accessory and skip the responsibility of owning a living creature!
The truth of puppy mills need to be brought out into the open and exposed for the mistreatment and cruelity that it puts upon the animals in their custody.
It is widely unknown the problems of puppies/dogs created from puppy mills. People are purchasing pups from pet stores each day thinking they are buying a quality dog. I am involved in German Shepherd Rescue and co-director of South Coast Animal League Rescue organization. Please help get Oprah to show the horrid conditions of these poor unformate animals that are used for mass producing puppies.
Puppy mills are cruel and inhumane. Dogs spend their whole lives in small cages, denied sunlight and fun. Please help those who cannot help themselves and did not ask for this kind of life. Thank you!
Oprah, Please do a show on puppy mills. You are such a caring advocate for children and some of the world's other innocent victims. If someone as respected as you exposed these people for the greedy, horrible, bad people they are many people would pay attention. Thank You.
These little puppies ( and kittens for that matter) need the love and care of decent humans they are at our mercy and it is not right for people to treat these creatures of God in such ill manners. The public needs to know the conditions and consenquenses that these puppy mill bring on.
Oprah, Can you imagine a year old puppy giving birth to a litter on an auction block; being advertised to the highest bidder as haveing many many breading years ahead of her? It disgusting and it happens. You can help stop it.
We should not only be outraged by puppy mills, puppy mills should just be outlawed. They operate quietly, like hidden concentrations camps, and when the owners are caught, little is done to punish them. It should be a felony to operate such a greed-driven, inhumane enterprise!
Please help put an end to this horrible abuse. We recently rescued a puppy mill victim, the physical shape she was in was horrible, she was near death. They were ready to throw her out because she was no longer a good breeder - at 3 years of age!
I have a rescue dog that was purchased at a puppy auction. He is the light of my life. I also volunteer for a National Rescue Group to find good homes for these rescues. If anyone can geet this word out, it is Oprah. This issue needs attention for the whole world to be educated on. Oprah is inspirational to the entire public.

If Oprah could expose this perhaps the public could be more aware of the "crimes" that are committed against these poor animals. I devote my spare time to Boxer Rescue in my area and it is so sad to see how many "throw away" animals we get calls about each week. Education is the beginning of helping people to change.
