A puppy from a puppy mill is more likely to have illness or parasites from the other dogs. It will probably have fleas or lice. The dieseases could spread to you, but are more likely to hurt the dog. If a dog is bought from a suspected puppy mill, do these things. 1. Call and ask the owner about health. Some puppy mill owners will give false documents or words. Get real proof from a vet. 2.

A dog/puppy from a pet store or puppy mill may or may not have genetic defects, you would have to check with your vet, but if you have not already bought your puppy, I suggest you adopt from an animal shelter.
