That quote right there is what keeps me divided on the subject. :sad:
There's a big difference between saving starfish lying on the beach and buying puppies at an auction to save. If the starfish on the beach live or die no one is making a profit. The man throwing them back in can help one at a time and is not hurting other starfish by helping one.

If you put money in a millers pocket then you should know you may contributing to the suffering of hundreds of other dogs.

There are many, many ways you can rescue and help dogs in other ways without giving money to a miller.
