Some say this ban would affect dog rescue groups because they would not be able to advertise recused dogs on Petfinder or other means of the internet. That would really affect rescues transporting dogs out of state to find loving homes, like my "Liza". I just wonder if this is true. I know the ASPCA says small home breeders could still raise some dogs with limits to breeding females and so on. But PETA wants a total ban. Just trying to find out the truth about this ban. I am not a fan of puppy mills and I would think there would be a way to shut them down at least. Any thoughts? Thanks Margie, "Liza's" mom
