The ruthless industry of the puppy trade

These establishments may be legal, but that doesn't make them right, a person's responsibility as a breeder is to sell a healthy well-balanced pup that has had human contact and stimulation in order to enter a home for a family and children, and the most important have the utmost respect for the breeding bitch, I say if a rescue can open its doors to the public then the same goes for these so-called legal breeders.



***************************************************************



Blood Money



The ugly truth behind money and greed,

Of battery farmed puppies of every breed.

As their filth-ridden business flourishes well,

Of five hundred plus bitches living in hell.



Their screaming cries are enough to chill,

Behind closed doors of the puppy mill.

The bigger the profit, the larger the scale,

Lining their pockets with blood money sales.



The poor silent whimpers of unheard souls,

Imprisoned in boxes where loneliness controls.

The stomach-churning sight box upon box,

Of man-made greediness, our future shocks.



No lights, no windows, just white washed walls,

Huddled in corners on cold concrete floors.

Mass-produced puppies trafficked on-line,

Then sold through dealers as supposedly fine.



Litter after litter cruelty and neglect,

With Parvo, cataracts and heart defects.

They serve their purpose to the very end,

Fulfilling their duty as MANS BEST FRIEND.



Making their millions through lies and deceit,

Of poor unwanted puppies filling our streets.

In squalid conditions, no regards to health,

Generating millions, expanding their wealth.



The truth and cruelty where blood monies made,

That ruthless industry called the puppy trade.

That multi-million complex upon that hill

Those screaming cries from the puppy mill.



Our skies will pour blood at Gods disgrace,

As money rules, and love's been replaced.

A dog loving nation we're supposed to be,

Behind closed doors where the eye can't see.
