The Rescue function of the Pomeranian Club of Canada was really only launched in 2001, and so we still have a ways to go . . . but we're headed in the right direction. Christine Surtees (see contact information below) is the Coordinator of this newly formed Pomeranian Rescue function, and she is desperately in need of support. Become a Rescue volunteer, contact or foster care provider in your region. Others types of support, including donations in cash and in kind, are also needed to effectively launch this important new Club activity.

CBC reports that recently, when Quebec police raided a puppy mill in the Laurentians, 390 of 400 dogs were so far gone they had to be destroyed. Conditions were so inhumane that officers involved in the raid received psychological counseling similar to that offered to those who investigate grisly murders and massacres. 

Our wake up call is to face reality, that this happens ALL across our country and around the world!!! As respectable breeders devoted to the Pomeranian, we VERY much stand behind the fight to stop what is going on in Quebec, and promote awareness country-wide.
If what you see and read in this article does not bother you, please NEVER purchase a living animal that needs you! If this does bother you, PLEASE help us to educate others about just what a  Puppy Mill is!

Don't support pet stores that do not help to adopt out pups from shelters, or give out  breeder and registration information. Respectable breeders DO NOT SELL TO PET STORES.

The way to stop puppy millers is to NOT give them the business. One can always find a reputable  breeder to deal with. For every puppy sold at a pet store or through Pet Brokers, look at the pictures in this CBC National article by clicking on the Photo Gallery link, and read as hundreds more PAY THE PRICE!
