A breeding dog's cage only needs to be six inches larger than her body.

There are an estimated 10,000 puppy mills in the United States.

Over 2 million puppies are bred in puppy mills each year.

Around 3 million dogs and cats are euthanized in shelters each year.

It is legal for a breeding dog to spend her entire life in a small wire cage.

Approximately 25 percent of the dogs in shelters are purebred.
