Mississippi is one of the states that has no state oversight for dog breeders.
"Why aren't puppy mills illegal?" is a question that we get all. of. the. time. And rightly so! If there are laws that protect animals, then why are puppy mills allowed to exist?

We looked at some of the most common commercial breeder, puppy mill and pet store laws across the country to show you how things legally look for dogs (and other companion animals) in commercial facilities.
Have you ever wondered how your state holds up?
