Animal Planets Airs Investigation Of Petland Pet Shops Tonight

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, May 18th, 2010 in Animal Issues, Film & TV, Videos.

Tonight Animal Planet airs a documentary on its investigation into one of the largest pet shops in the United States, Petland.

The company is both a target and defendant of the Humane Society of the United States due to its involvement with puppy mills.

Puppy mills often churn out animals with health and behavioral problems, after housing them in cramped conditions where they are designed to do nothing for humans but breed.

The video above documents an investigation where the White County Sheriff’s Department in Tennessee called the Humane Society to rescue over 200 dogs at a mill in Sparta.
