Puppy factories can only continue to operate because people are unknowingly buying their puppies. Recent footage supplied to Animals Australia reveals the level of deception and secret ties that keep this puppy factory trade alive:

This evidence is damning of pet shops (and you can find out how to take a stand against pet shops supporting puppy factories here) but it's online where the puppy factory trade is really booming. With deceptive online ads, it's easy for puppy factories to take advantage of unsuspecting people, and continue to profit at the expense of dogs. But you can help stop this.

Gumtree is a hot spot for puppy sales online. Its parent company eBay already won't allow the sale of dogs and cats through its website. So now it's time for Gumtree to step up! You can help shut down the online puppy factory supply chain by asking Gumtree to ban the sale of cats and dogs through their website, or else only allow ads from legitimate animal shelters.
