What is a BYB OR PUPPY MILL?
~ A BYB stands for backyard breeder, this is someone who just breeds two dogs together and leaves them in the yard to fend for themselves, they just breed dogs for the sake of it. They may have a sweet pet they want to try and reproduce or they think that their dogs are quality because they have papers and/or are registered with some registry. They think maybe they can make a few dollars selling pups, etc. They just put out dogs without real consideration for the future of not only the breed but the puppies produced. They are in it for the money and not the sake of the breed itself. Puppy mills are horrible, sad conditions (do a search and see pictures!) of dogs being kept all their life in crates, pens and over crowded with no regard to the animal, no love and attention, they are there just to produce mass amounts of puppies a year as they can. They will have diseases and no proper vet care or puppy shots or worming. It is just to produce as many puppies as possible for a profit witho
