Poverty pushing people into dog breeding... is it coming here, too?
Hello everybody,
Africa becomes poorer and poorer and the criminality rises as a consequences of the shortage of jobs, money and opportunities. It seems however that many citizens in these towns have decided to make money by breeding dogs in their backyards and sell them to whoever is willing to pay for a guardian dog.
It is definitely not acceptable since, as you can imagine, these dogs lack food, care and live in horrendous conditions. My worry is that puppy mills are increasing here in the Western world and occasional irresponsible breeders are also becoming more and more frequent.
Do you all think that we are going to see the same situation appear here, near our homes?
Thank you!
