@HappyTailsBooks Thanks so much for your comment and for your insight into the puppy mill situation in Lancaster County. What a sad situation. So nice to hear that the activities surrounding Awareness Day were successful. Sorry I couldn't attend!

I was at Awareness Day and it was a great event. However, I have to say that being in Lancaster amidst so many puppy mills was overwhelming. If you’ve never been there, what you see is vast, beautifully manicured farmland. There are lots of horse drawn carriages and every farm looks perfect. BUT… if you know about the puppy mills (there are hundreds), all you see when you look around is silent suffering. You can’t see or hear the dogs because the farms are so big and set back from the road, but you know it’s there, and it’s just terrible. What sealed the deal, was when I was on my way out of town, I passed a horse-drawn carriage (Amish – of course) with a sad-looking dog in a 2×2 cage in the back – probably being transported to another mill. So sad, and such a powerful image. Boycott Amish goods until they can get their community cleaned up!
