Puppy Mills are "large, filthy facilities in rural areas where puppies are bred in large numbers and usually sold to pet stores and/or online." Any breeder that has more than three breeding female dogs and/or has sales over $500 per year are considered commercial breeders by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).
