I'm beginning the search for a Siberian Husky. I found a puppy in Montgomery that isn't AKC registered, but APRI registered. I looked it up and APRI is a registry used by puppy mills to to claim a puppy is a pure breed when it is possible the AKC would not allow it due to a parent with a questionable background such as a puppy mill. I suspect the people were Amish or Mennonite from the location, name, and they would not sell a dog or show it on Sunday.
I asked my vet about breeders in our area and told her of my experience. She said something about the Amish breeders, but I didn't ask for clarification. I was talking with someone that reports to me today and she mentioned how people warned her to not buy a dog from the Amish puppy mills near Hershey, PA.
Are puppy mills and breeding dogs for sale something common among the Amish community? I am now wondering if my vet was referencing a bigger issue among the community with the puppy mills.
I found a very beautiful dog I am interested in at a Husky rescue between Terre Haute and Indy. At $150, someone will hopefully take it soon. If anyone else is interested in it, I will give out the info..
