Did you know that there are kitten mills across the country and people spend thousands of dollars to buy the kittens?! We may talk about puppy mills, but we are against any facility that is mass breeding animals in inhumane conditions for a profit.

For the first time ever, the dog breeding and sales industry has been audited nationwide in order to provide an accurate picture of what is happening on the ground so that we can measure progress.

Bailing Out Benji has determined nationwide averages regarding licensed breeders, puppy stores, brokers, and online brokers in order to be able to monitor progress annually. These numbers were determined after auditing 5 years worth of state and federal inspection records and 3 years of pet store records, while also including our preliminary research into online brokers.

We encourage advocates to familiarize themselves with these numbers in order to use facts and data to drive change. Gone are the days that we use approximations and guesses, our research team has put in the work in order to determine the reality of the puppy mill world.

Don't be tricked.. puppy mills are no treat!

It is easier to find a puppy mill than a responsible breeder. Unfortunately, places like puppy stores, online brokering websites, and newspaper ads make it really easy for puppy mills to hide among more reputable facilities to sell a lot of puppies to the unsuspecting public.

This Halloween, help us spread the truth behind the “trick” to your family, friends, and community! Think Benji before you buy. Find out where these puppies are really coming from and choose to adopt or shop responsibly. Together, we can make sure every dog gets the happy ending they deserve 🫶

If you're looking for some tips on how to adopt or shop responsibly, this article has great info: https://bailingoutbenji.com/adopt-or-shop-responsibly/

No one wants to hear that their puppy came from a puppy mill. It is a heartbreaking conversation that we have weekly with customers across the country.

Whether you are looking to buy or have already purchased a puppy, we strongly suggest googling your breeder and researching them before you exchange any money. Don’t buy from a pet store or a website that will ship a puppy to you with the click of a button. Reputable breeders do not operate that way.
And don’t forget, there are millions of amazing animals in shelters and rescues waiting for a forever home just like yours! Please consider adoption before buying 💙 Check out Petfinder today!

Every voice matters! See you at our next protest on November 15th.

It was a great weekend for a peaceful protest, and our South Dakota volunteers received lots of support from the community as they drove by!

Fun fact about our volunteers: many of them have fostered or adopted former puppy mill dogs, so this work is deeply personal. We’re so thankful to have such a passionate group of advocates who turn their compassion into action and stand up for the dogs who can’t speak for themselves. 🫶

We had another successful peaceful protest at Mini Critters today!

👻🐾 Trick-or-Treat with a Purpose! 🐾👻

This Halloween, you can help spread awareness about puppy mills in a simple (and sweet ☺️) way! We’ve created three fun designs that you can print off and tape to candy or treats before passing them out! Each design shares an important message, because education is the treat that keeps on giving. 💙

1. Download the designs in this post
2. Print them on regular printer paper and cut them at home
3. Attach them to your candy/treats
4. And just like that, you’re helping spread the word in your community!

If you get some treats made up, we'd love to see photos! 🥰
