    As long as they clean up after themselves.

    But being Peanuts you know that somehow he’ll be disappointed.

    Careful, Snoopy, in an election year you may regret what you find.

    There are professional breeders and there are professional breeders. Snoopy is from a puppy farm.

    Somehow that negative connotation isn’t ever present in Snoopy’s fond thoughts. Makes me wonder whether our ideas about puppy farms date to a period after Schultz created the Daisy Hill Puppy Farm.

    As with most animal industry, they’ve gone seriously down hill since the 60s. I remember visiting a factory farm in the 70s, and even then the animals were still well taken care of and allowed to wander around. No longer is this the case in so many farms. Puppy Mills are variable, but most are just down right bad. The driving force for all of this is, of course, money. Saving it and getting more. That’s it. They don’t care about anything else. Certainly not the welfare of the animals.

    My 10 year old Lhasa was rescued from a puppy mill at the age of 3. It took a long time for her to be okay with people and she still can not handle being in a crate.

    I would always rescue before I buy. Not saying there is anything wrong with loving breaders some of them only breed because they love the breed and care deeply about all their animals. If you must purchase make sure you look carefully into the breader see where the animals sleep, where they play, and always be vary wary of pet stores that sell dogs.

    I wonder if Spike was living out west yet? Then there’s Olaf, Belle, and I forget the other ones.

    What a good owner (or whatever Snoopy may refer to Charlie Brown as, besides “that round-headed kid”) C.B. is. How many others would go to such lengths for their dogs?
