[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here is one article for you:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2018/investigations/dog-auction-rescue-groups-donations/[/quote]

I donate to one of the groups in this article - National Mill Dog Rescue.  If these rescues don't buy the used up breeding dogs when the breeders are done with them, 
What do you think is going to happen to those dogs?  They are going to be thrown out like garbage.

The dogs that NMDR buys are hardly marketable as "purebreds".  They need a lot of work - medical, social - before they can be adopted out.  Some are missing eyes, or teeth.  Or entire jaws.  Some have lost toes or paws from living in wire cages.  Some have never been outside or touched grass.

There is nothing wrong with rescuing these dogs.  As long as the dogs aren't bred ever, ever again.  And they absolutely deserve to be rescued.[/quote]
What do YOU think would happen to them ? I think they would likely end up with animal control and the rescue could pull them without fees, or they would be euthanized which is what happens to a lot of them anyway. Not everything has a happy ending.[/quote]

They'd be killed.  Thrown in the garbage.  Dumped in the woods.  Whatever is the least time and effort for the breeder.[/quote]
