不是， 多数 breeder 都breed多于一种狗，只不过你很少机会认识到那些breeder因为接触他们的基本上只有dealer并且只能有dealer或者信得过的人, 只breed一种狗那些breeder目的还真不是为了赚钱，但是能不能说所有commercial 的breeder都是puppy mill，这就是另一回事了，我这回从家庭拿了4只pom，对比我在breeder那里拿到的pom，实际跟你说他们样子其实是差不多，不见得特别优秀，身体素质是Family dog好些，（就是stool都很nice看得出身体状况不错）但是只要过了这段2－4月的时期，puppy基本上问题就少很多，而且family dog非常social，很喜欢人，我以前卖过基本上完全不懂和人communicate的pom
那如果按楼上你的说法，那些比较好condition的地方依然是factory，只不过是卫生干净的factory，我也觉得你说得对，但是这只能说明一个事实，市面上至少60％－70％的人手里的狗都是从这些factory出来的，只是看你选择一个干净的factory还是一个脏factory罢了
这段说得很精辟
Effects
Due to the frequently poor breeding conditions in puppy mills, puppies bred there often suffer from health and/or social problems. Puppies raised in a cramped environment shared by many other dogs become poorly socialized to other dogs and to humans. Dogs are then transported over long distances in poor conditions, sometimes resulting in animal stress and death. As the surviving mill dogs grow older, they are more prone to developing respiratory ailments and pneumonia, as well as hereditary defects such as hip dysplasia.[2] In addition, mill dogs are more prone to have problems with their temperament. Puppies from mills are usually sold as purebred dogs in an attempt to attract the higher prices associated with purebreds. However, due to the indiscriminate breeding practices of puppy mills, the dog may not actually be a purebred puppy.[11] The vast majority of puppy mill animals are sold to pet stores by "dealers". Some puppies are sold by dealers masquerading as authentic breeders. |
