Since I haven't seen it here yet, the "partner" that breeds their dogs whose name they are oh so…read morecareful not to mention on their website is Clem Disterhaupt of Nebraska. Give the name a Google and you'll see why they don't name him. He managed to get his USDA breeding license SUSPENDED in 2008, which REALLY takes some effort as the USDA is not exactly tough on puppy mill enforcement: https://oalj.oha.usda.gov/sites/default/files/AWA-06-0023_080225.pdf
(refusal to admit the inspectors, btw, means he probably declined to let them in at some point knowing how bad things were...all those violations are from when he WILLINGLY allowed inspectors in. Can you imagine how ugly it must've been if the violations in the report are what he allowed them to see??)
If you don't want to read the PDF, imagine those heartbreaking Sarah McLaughlan ASPCA ads (in the aaaarms of the aaaangels) and that about sums it up. Fuzzypups is nothing but a broker for a (particularly gruesome) puppy mill. I'm sure they'll claim he cleaned up his act or something, but think about it a minute- does someone who lets things get that bad actually "care about dogs" enough to turn things around and somehow become a responsible breeder working only for the betterment of the dogs and not for sheer profits? Let me answer that for you... NO!
And no, I don't have a "fuzzypup," I ran across them while searching for a REPUTABLE havanese breeder and was absolutely appalled that these disgusting mill brokers tried to paint themselves as a "family business all about the dogs." Give me a break. All about the Benjamins maybe. I just laid my rescued mill dog (from a mill dog shelter, not "rescued" by buying them from the mill!!) to rest, about 5 years before her breed's typical lifespan, after years of illness and suffering, because people like ol' Clem and Fuzzypups couldn't care less if they're churning out dogs that are going to suffer from painful health defects all their short lives. They'd rather make money off torturing sentient creatures- and make no bones about it, that's what dogs in mills go through- torture!
Before they accuse me of being against breeders, there's absolutely nothing wrong with buying a dog from a responsible breeder who is doing everything they can to produce healthy, well adjusted dogs, better the breed, and do right by dogkind. Heck, I'm looking for a good breeder myself, for my own reasons. Fuzzypups is NOT a good breeder, nor is Clem Disterhaupt. Sure, you might get lucky and end up with a healthy or psychologically sound dog if you buy from Fuzzypups, but based on other reviews it's quite the gamble. MORE IMPORTANTLY, any money you give to Fuzzypups, whether through boarding, grooming, or buying a puppy, is going directly back into the mill industry and ensuring people like Clem Disterhaupt can stay in business to keep churning out mill puppies. If you care about dogs AT ALL, stay far, FAR away!!
