Brokers and puppy-mill owners are not concerned at all with the pedigree, health, or temperament of the animal. Reports indicate it is more likely that animals from puppy or kitten mills are sick due to a lack of veterinary care and poor breeding practices, and that they may have emotional issues resulting from a lack of socialization and human contact. Thousands of animals confined in cages suffer daily to meet consumer demand for buying a pet. We also know that some pet stores purchase from backyard breeders, also called \u201cbackyard producers,\u201d in order to project a better image than that of a puppy or kitten mill.<\/p>\n<p>Responsible breeders will not sell their pets through pet stores because they want to meet and personally interview the person or people who will care for the animal.<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about responsible and ethical breeding versus producers with no ethics, visit the Union pour le respect des animaux (UPRA) website <a href=\"http:\/\/www.upra.ca\/docum\/Tableau%20de%20comparaison.PDF\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">click here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>caacQ supports responsible and ethical breeders.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"line-height: 24px;\"><span style=\"line-height: 35px;\">Why should I spay\/neuter my pet?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Spayed or neutered pets tend, on average, to live 2 to 3 years longer than those that are not.<\/p>\n<p>Spaying\/neutering protects pets from certain types of deadly cancers.
