Because they are more valuable when it is time for sale.
Owners of puppy mills breed dogs to sell, in Singapore, they can sell for at least 800SGD per puppy. A female dog usually gives birth to at least 2 in a single birth. It is a lucrative business.
The best place to find a purebred puppy is a responsible and licensed breeder or breed rescue. You can also find purebred dogs and mixes at shelters and rescues and help a puppy/dog find a loving home while reducing the pet population. Don't look in the newspaper or a pet shop, because most likely those are from puppy mills.
There are thousands of puppy mills for all kinds of dogs. Usually, puppy mills will breed purebred dogs because they sell for a higher price. However, some puppymills make "custom dogs" such as the cockapoodle (a cocker spaniel and poodle mix) which some sell for high price as well. Puppy mills are purely used for profit, and you can expect the most expensive, rare, and popular dog breeds to be bred there.
"Puppy farmers" or those who run puppy mills breed any breed of dog that is known as a fad or is the most popular among families. These includes Laboradors, Chihuahuas, Yorkies, etc.
You could try to look up the breed of your puppy :-), go to a pedigree site if it's a purebred puppy and im sure you will find your answer.
Dogs are forced to breed over and over again. When they can't breed anymore they are abandoned or killed. Most drown the dogs because they don't want to waste the bullet. stop puppy mills by not buying from stores. adopting a dog from an animal shelter will improve its life and the money will not go to puppy mills.
I don't think so. Beagles (if purebred) have a black spot on their tongue. Purebred chowchows have a purple tongue. I think it is just a purebred symbol. We had a rottweiler with black splotches on his gums, and he was purebred.
First of all, that is sick to breed your dogs. Dogs are for people to enjoy and not to breed and make puppies. That is almost like puppy mills (which is disgusting and cruel.) You will not get a purebred bull-mastiff puppy. You ahouldn't want a purebred just get a mutt they are probably more loveable. I think that onl,y wanting a purebred is very selfish. The dog will be just like the dog in the dog shows. TOOOOO PERFECT!!! GET A CUTE DOG THAT IS NOT PUREBRED THEY ARE JUST AS GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Answer 2:I'm fairly sure the puppies would not be purebred bullmastiffs. The bullmastiff breed originated by breeding "bulldog" type dogs together until it resulted in a breed of dog which look very similar to each other and whose puppies can be predicted to look and act very similar their parents, not by breeding purebred English mastiffs and purebred English bulldogs together. The result of breeding an English bulldog and an English mastiff together would just result in a "mutt" type bulldog.
Puppy mills do not focus on the welfare of their dogs or puppies but rather focus on profits. Many of the puppies purchased from puppy mills have not been treated well and the validity of their pureness of breed is not guaranteed.
A good catch phrase for puppy mills would be "You need em', we will breed em'". A second one would be, "We don't need a stinking license".
The horrible human beings that own puppy mills have one goal in mind- making money. They breed way too many puppies in cramped cages with little food or water just to sell as many as they can. If you know of a puppy mill, report them immediately- its illegal!
give them thousands of treats:) They keep them in little bitty cages and breed them by hundreds.
