What is a puppy mill?
I heard on the news when my dad was watching that a "puppy mill" was busted in our town. What does that even mean?

According to my point of views, A puppy mill is a large-scale commercial dog breeding operation where profit is given priority over the well-being of the dogs.Illness and disease are common in dogs from puppy mills. Because puppy mill operators often fail to apply proper husbandry practices that would remove sick dogs from their breeding pools, puppies from puppy mills are prone to congenital and hereditary conditions.

A puppy mill is like a puppy farm. They breed dogs for the purpose of selling.

A puppy mill describes an abusive, irresponsible and illegal breeding operation. Dogs are kept in horrible conditions, bread constantly, and puppies are sold to pet stores, or online, where people will pay the most, and wont ask too many questions.
Because of this, the puppies often have health issues, and the parents of the those puppies live horrible lives. Some puppy mills will have hundreds of dogs keep in small, filthy cages. It's all about profit. They don't care about the dogs at all.
If there was a puppy mill in your town, your animal rescue or human society will have a influx of animals in desperate need of medical care, and maybe of homes. If you can donate any money to the people trying to help these dogs I'm sure it would be very helpful.
