Animal Rescue Corps Saves 86 Dogs from Missouri Puppy Mill, Highlighting State's High Concentration of Commercial Breeders

Animal Rescue Corps recently rescued 86 dogs from a puppy mill in Missouri. This operation sheds light on Missouri's significant issue with commercial breeding operations, as the state is home to approximately 800 to 1,000 such facilities, making it the leading state in America for puppy mills.
