Bumped into someone with a Mal the other day. We chatted for a moment. I asked where she was from, local or what. The woman just said in an odd tone "she's from Pennsylvania". I asked again, but more specifically,and she responded with the same. It hit me as I was walking away. Then I looked into it the next day and there's pages and pages of shitty, irreverently churned out Mal puppies.
I'm so angry

Re: Amish Mals
Hi Tim - I think I'd like to hear a little more context. Massive puppy mill in Amish country?

Re: Amish Mals
Here in the mid Atlantic, folks like the Amish have really tapped into the market for puppies. The care they take with their dogs is often horrible. But even in the best circumstances, where people treat the dogs well and socialize them from birth, the breeding program itself is executed without any concern or consideration of the physical health and mental stability of the dogs. They FLOOD the gene pool with terrible genetics.
