My owner Tracy has posted the video of this raid. I must warn you it may make you sad and very mad at the same time as it did my owner. But hopefully you will become more aware of what is happening in theses mills and help spread the word to others to NOT bu from a pet store who in turn buys their puppies from places like this.   <object height="445" width="480" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000"> <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /> <param name="allowNetworking" value="all" /> <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /> <param name="wmode" value="transparent" /> <param name="flashvars" value="autoPlay=0&paddedWidth=480&paddedHeight=445&videoWidth=480&videoHeight=360&videoURL=http://videos.onesite.com/196337/x2nlbgvicmf0zwdvb2ruzxdzlmnvbv8zmdkwndewnl9ub3j0af9jyxjvbgluyv9wdxbwev9tawxsx3jhawrfmdkuzmx2xzffmtizndk4mtmxmy4znzc5.flv&thumbURL=http://videos.onesite.com/196337/clips/x2nlbgvicmf0zwdvb2ruzxdzlmnvbv8zmdkwndewnl9ub3j0af9jyxjvbgluyv9wdxbwev9tawxsx3jhawrfmdkuzmx2xzffmtizndk4mtmxmy4znzc51.jpg&videoID=641736&loginURL=http%3A%2F%2Fcelebrategoodnews.com%2Fsignup&signupURL=http%3A%2F%2Fcelebrategoodnews.com&loginFormOriginURL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.celebrategoodnews.com%2Fresources%2Fajax%2Fajax_window%2Fone_ajax_window_video_manager.one%3Fa%3Dload_gallery%26ms%3D1234982240358&useRating=1&contentID=556363196&userID=UID&coreU=fac8c1ec00fbeacdde51b9295e3e0d93" /> <param name="src" value="http://wa3.images.onesite.com/resources/flash/tofPlayer.swf?ver=9.02.12" /><embed height="445" width="480" src="http://wa3.images.onesite.com/resources/flash/tofPlayer.swf?ver=9.02.12" flashvars="autoPlay=0&paddedWidth=480&paddedHeight=445&videoWidth=480&videoHeight=360&videoURL=http://videos.onesite.com/196337/x2nlbgvicmf0zwdvb2ruzxdzlmnvbv8zmdkwndewnl9ub3j0af9jyxjvbgluyv9wdxbwev9tawxsx3jhawrfmdkuzmx2xzffmtizndk4mtmxmy4znzc5.flv&thumbURL=http://videos.onesite.com/196337/clips/x2nlbgvicmf0zwdvb2ruzxdzlmnvbv8zmdkwndewnl9ub3j0af9jyxjvbgluyv9wdxbwev9tawxsx3jhawrfmdkuzmx2xzffmtizndk4mtmxmy4znzc51.jpg&videoID=641736&loginURL=http%3A%2F%2Fcelebrategoodnews.com%2Fsignup&signupURL=http%3A%2F%2Fcelebrategoodnews.com&loginFormOriginURL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.celebrategoodnews.com%2Fresources%2Fajax%2Fajax_window%2Fone_ajax_window_video_manager.one%3Fa%3Dload_gallery%26ms%3D1234982240358&useRating=1&contentID=556363196&userID=UID&coreU=fac8c1ec00fbeacdde51b9295e3e0d93" wmode="transparent" allowfullscreen="true" allownetworking="all" allowscriptaccess="always" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed> </object> </p> <p>In this video you will see the Humane Society of the United States partnering with the Wayne County Animal Control to bring an end to the suffering and neglect of so many dogs.</p> <p>The "Good News" is that steps are being taken to shut down these mills and  to get some laws passed to prevent this type of animal abuse.  Please pass this information on to all dog and animal lovers. I am in hope people will be able to make a donation in their pets name like my owner did and help put a stop to this.</p> <p>I am so very grateful that when I was a young pup..only 6 weeks old my human owners who could not take care of me brought me to a really nice Humane Shelter in San Diego. There were 3 of us from a 8 pup litter. The other 5 found homes before going to the shelter. I was very lucky that my now mom, Tracy Jacobsen and her son, Miles happened to stop at the new shelter to look around. It was a big day at the shelter, it was the National Humane Society tele-a-thon. There were so many people and I actually had been on TV as one of the puppies that could be adopted. My mom, was very luck too..she and Miles got me before anyone else!</p> <p>So please help stop the puppy mills and encourage people to adopt. You might not know this about me, but I have a very famous cousin who is a cat and she plays the piano. Her name is Nora, the Piano playing cat and she will soon be featured on Animal Planet. <a target="_blank" title="Nora" href="http://www.ravenswingstudio.com/NoraWeb/nora_home.html">Click Here</a> to read more about Nora.<a href="/griffin/gallery/view_gallery.one?pid=59406446"><img src="http://wa1.images.onesite.com/celebrategoodnews.com/user/griffin/blog_photos/nora.jpg?v=5184" width="72" /></a></p> <p>Thanks for taking the time to read my blog today and please share this information and watch the video that has been posted on this site about the raid on the puppy mills.</p> <p>Griffin</p><div class="oneCommentDetails"> 0 Comments - <a href="http://www.celebrategoodnews.com/griffin/blog/comment.one?xref_id=8617016&type=blog_post">Leave a Comment</a> </div>Wed, 18 Feb 2009 12:28:53 -0600
